Ingredients:
– 4 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced
– 1 onion, chopped
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
– 1 cup whole milk
– 1/2 cup heavy cream
– 2 tablespoons butter
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Chopped chives or green onions for garnish
Instructions:
1. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
2. Add the diced potatoes to the pot, stirring to coat them with the onion and garlic mixture. Cook for another 5 minutes to slightly brown the potatoes.
3. Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, bringing the mixture to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
4. Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Be cautious with hot liquids to avoid splattering.
5. Stir in the whole milk and heavy cream, allowing the soup to heat through without boiling. Season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed.
6. To serve, ladle the potato soup into bowls and garnish with chopped chives or green onions for an extra pop of flavor and freshness.
