1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 small Onion, chopped
4 stalks Celery, chopped
2 medium potato, peeled and diced
4 garlic, minced
bay leaf
1 tsp thyme
1 tsp parsely
7 cups Water (or chicken broth) I used 1/2 of each

Heat oil over medium heat, add onion and celery, and cook gently, stirring often, for about 10 mins, until very tender. Add 1/2 tsp salt after 5 mins. make sure the vegetables do not brown.
Add potatoes, garlic and herbs. Stir together and add water or chicken broth. Bring to simmer, add salt to taste. Cover and simmer 30 -40 mins, until the vegetables are very tender. Remove from heat.
Use a food processor or blender to puree the soup. You can puree the whole soup or puree 1/2 of it if you want it chunky. Return puree to the soup, season with salt and pepper to taste.
