Delicious Thick Creamy Potato Soup image

One of the best potato soups, I think the sour cream makes the difference, I like to add in the cayenne pepper for just a bit of heat, and I most always double the complete recipe and use 4 russet potatoes and 4 red potatoes. If desired you can add in some cooked cubed potatoes just before serving and sprinkle with more Parmesan cheese, I most always do! you will love this!

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
2 medium celery ribs, diced
1 medium onion, diced
1 tablespoon fresh minced garlic (optional)
1 1/2 cups low sodium chicken broth
4 chicken bouillon cubes (I use OXO brand, can use the small packages in place of cubes)
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 cup full-fat milk (or use 2 cups half-and-half cream)
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1 tablespoon flour
salt & freshly ground black pepper (i use seasoned salt)
1 pinch cayenne pepper
grated parmesan cheese
green onion

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes in a pot with chicken broth, onions, garlic and celery; bring to a boil and simmer until veggies are tender (about 20 minutes).
  • Remove from the stove and cool slightly (or you can refrigerate to puree later) using an electric mixer or a food processor blend until a smooth (leaving a few chunks of potatoes is fine!).
  • Add in 1 cup milk or half and half, Parmesan cheese and bouillon cubes or packets, then place back on the stove to heat slowly.
  • In a medium bowl whisk the 1-1/2 cups sour cream with the flour until blended.
  • Pour 1/3 of the heated potato/milk mixture into the sour cream; mix then pour it back into the remainder of the soup; stir to combine, then heat on top of the stove.
  • Season with salt and pepper and cayenne pepper (if using) then ladle into bowls.
  • Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped green onions.
  • Delicious!
