In case of a colloidal solution, the solvent can be separated by a process called centrifugation. With this process both the solvent and the solute can be recovered at the same time. However in case of true solutions like common salt in water,separation of the solute can be done by the process of evaporation or crystallization but the separation of the solvent is done by complicated techniques such as desalination.

Filtration. First the solute is removed from the solution via the process of crystallization, then the slurry is poured through a filter paper where the crystalized solute is retained, and the solution is recovered in the beaker.

To remove a solid solute in an aqueous solution, evaporation can always be done. When the solvent evaporates, a residue of the solute will be left. This is always applicable for solutions that haven't went through a chemical change.

Which part or parts of a solution does evaporation recover the solute or the solvent or both?

The solute will be left behind when the solvent evaporates. With the right setup you can capture the vapor and recondense it back into the solvent, but if you simply let it evaporate into the air then only the solute will be recovered. So it is possible to recover both, but you always recover the solute.
