A comforting and flavorful potato soup enhanced with dill and a creamy texture.
Heat the butter in a large pot over medium heat.
Ensure the butter doesn't burn by keeping the heat moderate.
Add the chopped carrots, celery, and onion to the pot and sauté until softened and slightly browned.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Add the diced potatoes and water to the pot, then bring to a boil.
Cut the potatoes into even pieces for uniform cooking.
Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender.
Check the potatoes with a fork to ensure they are soft.
Transfer a portion of the soup to a blender and blend until smooth.
Blend in batches if necessary to avoid overfilling the blender.
Return the blended soup to the pot and stir in the dill.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Serve the soup warm, garnished with a sprig of dill if desired.
Pair with crusty bread for a complete meal.
