Sauté the Aromatics

In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until they become fragrant and translucent.

Add Potatoes and Broth

Once the onion and garlic are sautéed, add the diced potatoes and chicken/vegetable broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender.
