Share:
Ingredients
- 5 pounds Yukon gold potatoes (or russets)
- 1 large sweet onion, peeled and chopped
- 1 cup chopped celery
- 4-6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup butter
- 3 tablespoons chicken base paste or bouillon powder (or vegetable bouillon for vegetarian)
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- salt and pepper
- water
Instructions
- Chop the onion, celery, and garlic. Then peel the potatoes and cut them into 3/4 inch chunks. Place the potato chunks in a bowl of cold water so they don't brown.
- Place a large 7-8 quart pot over medium heat. Add the butter. Once melted, add the onions, celery and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-5 minutes to soften, stirring each minute.
- Drain off the water and add the potatoes to the pot. Add 8 cups fresh water, chicken base, and rosemary. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes, until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Use a potato masher to gently mash approximately 1/3 of the potatoes. You want the soup base to be thick, but to still see plenty of chunks.
- Stir in the sour cream, grated parmesan cheese, and parsley. Taste, then salt and pepper as needed. Simmer another 5 minutes to thicken. Serve warm with an extra sprinkle of parmesan and parsley.
Notes
- SLOW COOKER POTATO SOUP INSTRUCTIONS:
- Chop and sauté the veggies as directed in steps 1 and 2.
- Then move the sauteed vegetables to a large 6-8 quart slow cooker. Add the potatoes, bouillon, rosemary and 8 cups water.
- Slow cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours.
- Mash the potatoes a little. Then stir in the sour cream, parmesan, and parsley.
