Preheat oven to 350F.

In a large pot, sauté the onion in oil until translucent.

Dissolve the bouillon cubes in a cup of hot water. Add potatoes and bouillon to pot; cook on medium heat, stirring frequently for 5 minutes. Add the rest of the vegetables, the garlic, and the bay leaves. Cover the pot and cook for 20-30 minutes, until the potatoes are done and the mixture has thickened somewhat. Remove the bay leaves.
