Description
A warm and comforting creamy potato soup that’s easy to make and perfect for chilly days.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup cream or milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is soft and translucent.
- Add the diced potatoes and chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. If you don’t have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the soup to a regular blender in batches.

Notes
For added flavor, top with crispy bacon bits, shredded cheese, or fresh herbs like chives or parsley. Serve with warm bread or crackers.
