Once the potatoes are cooked allow them to cool & then add to a blender with Vegetable Stock, Maple Syrup, 1 tbs Olive Oil the Onions & Garlic & blend until smooth.

Add the blended mixture back to the pot you cooked the onions in, add 2 Bay Leaves and allow to cook for another 15-20 minutes.

Before serving, remove the bay leaves.
