01
Step 1
Start by melting the butter in a large pot over medium-low heat. Toss in the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions turn translucent—this should take about 5 to 10 minutes. Add the cauliflower and zucchini and cook just until they’re warmed through, about a minute or two.

Step 2
Next, stir in the potatoes and broth, then bring everything to a boil. Lower the heat and let it simmer gently until the potatoes are tender, which usually takes around 15 to 20 minutes. Once the potatoes are ready, add the kale and cook for another couple of minutes until it’s slightly wilted.

Step 3
Pour the milk into a blender, then ladle in about two-thirds of the soup (you might need to do this in batches). Secure the lid and pulse a few times before blending until smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the creamy soup back into the pot.

Step 4
Finally, stir in the corn, paprika, dill, salt, and pepper. Let the soup cook just until the corn is heated through, about 2 to 3 minutes. Serve it up with a sprinkle of Cheddar cheese and some fresh parsley on top for a cozy finish.
