Ready for an easy dish that hits the spot, here’s a recipe for a delicious homemade potato soup:

Ingredients:

  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 4 cups of potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • 4 cups of vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 cup of milk or heavy cream
  • 3 tbsp of butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional toppings: shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, bacon bits

Instructions:

  1. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and minced garlic, and sauté for about 5 minutes or until the onions are translucent.
  2. Add the chopped potatoes and broth to the pot, and bring the mixture to a boil.
  3. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the soup simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the potatoes are tender.
  4. Remove the pot from the heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup to a blender and puree it in batches.
  5. Return the pot to the heat and add the milk or heavy cream. Stir the soup until the cream is fully incorporated.
  6. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste, and serve hot with your desired toppings.

Alternative Ingredients:

  • Instead of potatoes, you can use sweet potatoes or butternut squash for a different flavor.
  • For a vegetarian version, use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • Add some cooked bacon or ham to the soup for extra protein and flavor.
  • Stir in some chopped kale or spinach for added nutrients.
