This Fennel Soup Is Like Medicine for My Gut! Stomach Gas, Fatty Liver, and Intestinal Cleansing

To make this gut-friendly fennel soup, you’ll need:

2 large fennel bulbs, chopped

1 onion, chopped

2 cloves of garlic, minced

3 cups of vegetable broth

1 cup of water

2 tablespoons of olive oil

1 potato, peeled and diced

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Preparation
1. Prepare the Vegetables:

Start by chopping the fennel bulbs, onion, and potato. Mince the garlic cloves.

2. Sauté the Aromatics:

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until they become soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

3. Add the Fennel and Potato:

Add the chopped fennel and diced potato to the pot. Stir well to combine with the onion and garlic.

4. Pour in the Broth:

Add the vegetable broth and water to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the fennel and potato are tender.

5. Blend the Soup:

Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until it reaches a smooth, creamy consistency. If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can carefully transfer the soup to a regular blender in batches.

6. Season and Serve:

Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle it into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
