Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds potatoes about 7 cups diced
- 2 to 3 cups diced ham
- 1 medium onion diced
- 1 large carrot chopped
- 2 teaspoons dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup milk or cream
- ½ cup sour cream
- potato flakes for thickening, optional*
Instructions
- If using russet or baking potatoes, peel the potatoes. Cut the potatoes into ¾-inch pieces.
- In a 6qt slow cooker, add potatoes, ham, onion, carrot, ham, parsley, thyme and salt and pepper. Pour the broth overtop.
- Cook on low for 7 hours or high for 3 hours or until the potatoes are tender.
- Transfer 2 to 3 cups of the potatoes and carrots to a bowl. Mash them and return the mashed mixture to the slow cooker.
- Add the milk and sour cream. Stir and cook for an additional 15 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper if desired.
Notes
- Potatoes: Any variety of potatoes can be used. Thin skinned potatoes, such as red or Yukon gold potatoes do not need to be peeled but baking potatoes or russets should be peeled.
- Ham: Use leftover ham or chopped ham steaks.
- Thickening: Mash additional vegetables to thicken or stir in 3 to 4 tablespoons of potato flakes.
- This soup can also be thickened with a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water). Add 2 to 3 tablespoons to the soup and cook on high for 15 minutes.
