Creamy Potato Soup is the ultimate simple yet delicious soup. There are soups that you plan for, have to go and buy ingredients for and take a while to cook. And then there are soups that you can rustle up in no time from the ingredients you have in your store cupboard for a big bowl of yummy goodness. This is one of those! Plus, you can make it vegan by switching to plant-based milk.
All the ingredients are basics you will probably already have at home and the whole thing takes less than half an hour to make. A quick and easy option for a chilly afternoon or evening!
To make the Creamy Potato Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
In a heavy-based pan, melt the butter before adding the onion and potatoes. Give them a stir to ensure they are fully coated and add the seasoning. Lay a piece of parchment or butter wrapper over the top, put the lid on the pan and leave to cook over a low heat for about 10 minutes.
If using homemade stock, bring it to the boil in a separate pan. Or if using readymade, boil the water and add the stock cubes according to the package instructions.
Remove the paper and add the stock to the vegetables. Increase the heat a little and cook for a further 10-15 minutes until the vegetables are completely soft.
Pour the milk into the soup. Use a handheld blender or transfer to a standing blender and blend until smooth.
Check the seasoning and then divide the soup into bowls. Scatter the chopped parsley over the top to garnish.
