Peel and dice the russet potatoes into small cubes. Chop the onion and mince the garlic.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Add the diced potatoes, vegetable broth, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 20-25 minutes until potatoes are tender.
Blend the soup until smooth and creamy using an immersion blender or a traditional blender.
Return the blended soup to low heat. Stir in the heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until cheese melts completely.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
