Creamy Potato Soup by Frau Danger image

This recipe is from my best friend Diane (aka Frau Danger -- a little inside joke) and is posted with her permission. DH loves this potato soup. Very rich and creamy and great served on a chilly night with warm bread and butter or soft cheese, and a nice green salad.

Categories     Potato

Time 50m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups peeled cubed potatoes (baking potatoes make a creamier soup, though I prefer red potatoes for the flavor)
1 cup finely diced celery
1 cup finely diced onion
2 cups chicken broth or 2 cups vegetable broth
2 teaspoons kosher sea salt
1 cup milk
1 cup heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or 1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 tablespoon fresh minced chives or 1 teaspoon dried chives
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/2 lb bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
1/2-1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (per your preference)

Steps:

  • In a large dutch oven, combine potatoes, celery, onion, broth (or water) and salt.
  • Bring pot to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Reduce heat and stir in remaining ingredients, except cheddar cheese.
  • Simmer until the soup thickens and is hot and bubbly, about 5-10 minutes.
  • Either add cheddar cheese and stir into soup or sprinkle on top just before serving.
  • You can also add some onion & garlic flavored croutons to each bowl of soup for some extra crunch.
