Procedure
0. Start by cleaning the fennel and slicing it finely. Also cut the carrot into julienne strips and the potato into small cubes.
1. In a saucepan, heat the olive oil and add the chopped onion. Sauté over medium heat until translucent.
2. Add the fennel, carrot, and potato to the pot. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.
3. Pour the vegetable broth into the pot, cover and cook for about 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
4. Add fresh orange juice and a little grated zest for a more intense flavor. Add dill and fennel seeds, too, if you want a more pronounced aroma.
5. If you prefer a creamier consistency, you can blend part of the soup with an immersion blender.
6. Serve the soup hot, garnished with a little grated orange zest and a sprig of fresh dill. You can also serve it with slices of toasted bread.
7. For an extra touch, you can add a drizzle of olive oil just before serving. If you like contrast, a sprinkling of freshly ground black pepper will enhance the fresh, citrusy flavor of the orange.
