Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.

For serving

2 tbsp fresh parsley, roughly chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
