Instructions
- Turn on the rice cooker, set the mode to Cook and add the lid to let the rice cooker preheat for about 1 minute.
- Add the butter to the rice cooker pot and put on the lid. Give the butter 1 to 2 minutes to melt.
- Toss in the diced bacon, add the lid back on and fry it for 6 to 8 minutes, or until it's crispy. Reserve 1 teaspoon of crispy bacon to use later for serving.
- Now add the onions to the pot and fry them, covered, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until they soften.
- Then add the thyme, rosemary and bay leaf and season with salt and pepper. Cook them for a few seconds and then add the potatoes and garlic.
- Toss the ingredients well and pour in the stock. Cover and cook for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
- At this stage, pour in the cream and add the mustard. Stir it well. Remove the bay leaf and change the rice cooker mode to warm.
- Use a hand blender to carefully blend about half of the soup. We essentially want a mix of very silky and slightly chunky textures in the soup.
- Alternatively, you can just remove half of the soup with a ladle and add it to a blender. Blend it until it's smooth and return it to the pot. Mix it well.
- Add more salt and pepper if needed. Serve the soup in bowls topped with the reserved crispy bacon and scallions.
