This Cream of Potato Soup is loved by my whole family, during the winter time. My kids are not the greatest soup fans, however, this creamy potato does the trick, everytime! The whole preparation takes 30 minutes, from start to finish – now doesn’t that sound easy? And with ingredients that are almost always stocked up in our pantry, dinner couldn’t be smoother!
While the soup is boiling, I put loaves of buttered bread in the oven to crisp up and pair it with the soup. We put on a good family movie, in front of the the tv, and you have the whole winter evening scene, done!
To make Cream of Potato Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large pot over high heat, boil the potatoes in the chicken broth for 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender. Carefully remove and transfer the potatoes from the broth to a blender or food processor.
Add ¾ cup of th broth to the potatoes and purée for 5 seconds, or more depending on how smooth you want the soup to be.
Add the remaining broth to the puréed potatoes and set aside.
Melt the butter, in a large saucepan, over medium heat.
Add the salt, ground black pepper, onion and dill weed to the butter. Stir and sauté for 2 minutes.
Sprinkle with flour and stir well.
Pour in the milk and heat for about 1-2 minutes, until the mixture starts to thicken.
Add the puréed potato mixture and allow to heat through.
Serve hot with a warm, crispy loaf of bread.
