Instructions

  1. 1
    Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

    Pour in beef broth and water. Add the diced potatoes, sliced carrots, dried thyme, caraway seeds (if using), and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, or until vegetables begin to soften.

    Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Keep in mind that corned beef can be salty, so add salt cautiously.
