Categories     Soups

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

25 g Butter
1 tbsp Oil
1 Large Leek, finely chopped
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3-4 Carrots, diced into small pieces
8-10 Large potatoes, peeled and roughly cut into chunks
1.5 Litres Hot Chicken or Vegetable Stock
Salt and Pepper

Steps:

  • Tip in the vegetables, give them a stir and season with salt and pepper. Cook over a low heat for 10-15 minutes or until the veg starts to soften a little. Pour in the chicken or vegetable stock, cover and simmer gently for 1/1 1/2 hours or until the vegetables are soft and the potatoes are starting to break up.
  • Using a potato masher, mash everything up, but not to much - you still want some large tattie lumps. If the soup is too thick for your liking just add some water to thin it down.
  • Check the seasoning and serve with fresh bread or oatcakes.

SIMPLE SCOTTISH TATTIE SOUP RECIPE



Simple Scottish Tattie Soup Recipe image

Scottish Potato Soup, otherwise known as Tattie Soup, is a heart-warmingly delicious but simple recipe that is perfect for a winters day!

Provided by Phil & Sonja

Categories     Savoury Recipes

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1kg (2lb) potatoes
1 medium onion
1 large leek
2 medium carrots
25g (2tbsp) butter/oil
1.5 litres vegetable or chicken stock
Salt and white pepper
1 celery stick (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel and chop potatoes into large cubes
  • Finely chop onion and celery if using
  • Discard the green part of the leek (or save for making stock another time) and finely dice the white part
  • Dice the carrots into small pieces about 1cm each
  • Add the butter/oil to a large pot and allow to melt
  • Add in the onion, leek, and celery if using and cook for 5 minutes, allowing them to "sweat" but not brown.
  • Put the carrots and potato in the pot and cover with the stock
  • Add a dash of salt and white pepper
  • Bring to the boil, skimming off any sort of foam/scum with a wooden spoon to get rid of as it does so. This is just the protein releasing from the vegetables but it's nicer if you remove it rather than stir in later.
  • Turn down to a simmer for 1 hour
  • Use a masher or wooden spoon to break up some of the potatoes, but leave some large chunks as well
  • Season more to taste and serve!

ABSOLUTELY ULTIMATE POTATO SOUP



Absolutely Ultimate Potato Soup image

I have made this for many whom have given it the title. This takes a bit of effort but is well worth it. Please note: for those who do not wish to use bacon, substitute 1/4 cup melted butter for the bacon grease and continue with the recipe. (I generally serve this soup as a special treat as it is not recommended for people counting calories.)

Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound bacon, chopped
2 stalks celery, diced
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
8 potatoes, peeled and cubed
4 cups chicken stock, or enough to cover potatoes
3 tablespoons butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
3 teaspoons chopped fresh cilantro
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until done. Remove bacon from pan, and set aside. Drain off all but 1/4 cup of the bacon grease.
  • Cook celery and onion in reserved bacon drippings until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes. Add cubed potatoes, and toss to coat. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Return bacon to the pan, and add enough chicken stock to just cover the potatoes. Cover, and simmer until potatoes are tender.
  • In a separate pan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the heavy cream, tarragon, and cilantro. Bring the cream mixture to a boil, and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Stir the cream mixture into the potato mixture. Puree about 1/2 the soup, and return to the pan. Adjust seasonings to taste.
