Potato Ham & Cheese Soup
Sounds great, I like a good potato soup. Very simple ingredients as well, perfect, on my to cook list.
Ingredients
- 3 cups potatoes, cubed
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 small onion, diced
- 3 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 3 cups milk
- 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup ham, diced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Boil the potatoes in a stock pot until desired tenderness then drain off the water reserving 1 cup for later use.
- Melt the butter in a small pan and cook the onion until soft.
- Now add the cooked onion, butter and flour to the stock pot and stir to mix together over low heat. Keep stirring until you get the thickness desired then remove from the heat.
- Now mix in the potatoes, milk, the cup of liquid from the potatoes, cheese, and ham to the stock pot stir to mix and simmer over medium heat for 30 to 40 minutes stirring from time to time until it thickens.
- Serve.
Notes
I cannot price the ham yet until I go back to Makro and buy some, reasonable price though. The cheese is costly, so for now I will state this as fair value and will update pricing when I get some ham.
