Ingredients
  

For the Soup
  • 1 lb fresh salmon fillets ensures juicy, flaky fish that elevates your soup.
  • 4 cups vegetable broth adds a rich, flavorful base for the soup.
  • 2 medium waxy potatoes they hold up beautifully during cooking for a hearty texture.
  • 2 medium carrots sweetens the soup and adds a vibrant color.
  • 1 large sweet onion brings a lovely depth of flavor when sautéed.
  • 3 cloves garlic infuses the soup with warmth and richness.
For the Seasoning
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill or parsley provides a refreshing pop of flavor right before serving.
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice brightens the dish and enhances the taste of the salmon.
  • 2 tbsp olive oil used to sauté and release the natural sweetness of the onions.

Equipment

  • Large pot

Method
 

How to Make Salmon Soup
  1. In a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté the diced onions until they are translucent, about 5 minutes.
  2. Toss in minced garlic and stir for an additional minute.
  3. Incorporate diced potatoes and carrots, then pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally until the vegetables are tender, approximately 15 minutes.
  4. Gently add chopped salmon fillets into the pot. Simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Stir in the freshly chopped dill or parsley along with lemon juice just before serving.
  6. Ladle into bowls lovely and warm, and garnish with extra herbs if desired.

Notes

For a rich flavor, sauté the onions until translucent. Be mindful not to overcook the salmon; simmer it just until flaky. Use waxy potatoes for better texture, and add herbs and lemon juice just before serving for freshness.
