Key Ingredients- 3 boiled potatoes

- 1-2 cups milk (adjust to your preference)
- A little butter (for enhanced flavor)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, gather your ingredients: 3 boiled potatoes, 1 thoroughly washed onion, milk, and butter. Boiling the potatoes beforehand will significantly shorten your cooking time.
Step 2
Peel the boiled potatoes and cut them into large chunks. This size is good for blending into a smooth soup. Cutting them larger makes blending a bit easier.
Step 3
Peel the onion and slice it thinly. Thinly sliced onions will soften more quickly when sautéed in butter and help bring out the natural sweetness of the soup.
Step 4
Melt a little butter in a pan over medium heat. Once the butter is fully melted, add the thinly sliced onions. Sauté them gently until they become translucent and release a sweet aroma. Be careful not to burn them.
Step 5
Transfer the chunked boiled potatoes and the sautéed onions into a blender. Add enough milk to cover the potatoes. Blend until all ingredients are smooth and creamy, forming a fine purée. If you don’t have a blender, a handheld immersion blender works well too.
Step 6
Pour the blended potato mixture into a saucepan and bring it to a simmer over medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Step 7
Once the soup begins to bubble gently, reduce the heat to low. Season with chicken stock, salt, and pepper according to your taste. It’s best to add seasoning gradually while tasting.
Step 8
Serve the warm potato soup in bowls. Optionally, sprinkle some shredded cheese or a pinch of fresh parsley (or pepper) on top for an extra touch of flavor and heartiness. Enjoy your delicious and satisfying homemade potato soup!
