Add carrots, and cook for about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir celery into the pan and let steam or 20 to 30 minutes to bring out the flavour.
Add potatoes, pour in water or broth. Cover soup with a lid. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Add chopped parsley and purée until smooth.
Season with salt and black pepper, serve warm with croutons or crusty bread if desired.
