Soup Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and dice the Russet potatoes into small cubes.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Cook the Potatoes

    Add the diced potatoes to the pot, followed by the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  4. 4

    Blend the Soup

    Use an immersion blender to puree the soup to your desired consistency. If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup.

  5. 5

    Add Cream and Seasoning

    Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve the Soup

    Ladle the soup into bowls and top with shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and sliced green onions before serving.
