Potato Herb Soup Recipes

CREAM OF POTATO & HERB SOUP

Steps:

• Set a large pot of water to boil
• As the water boils, peel and cube the potatoes, then add them to the boiling water, and let the potatoes cook for 30 minutes on high heat
• When the potatoes are cooking, chop the onions, parsley and fresh chives before sauteeing them in a large pan, until onions are soft and translucent
• Once potatoes are cooked and soft, drain the potatoes, then combine the potatoes with the sauteed herbs and onions, vegetable stock, and mix well
• Process the mixture in batches in a blender, adding more water as needed until you get the desired texture of soup. I like mine slightly thick and creamy, but if you'd prefer a more liquid consistency, add more water or stock as you wish.
• Add salt and pepper to taste
• Serve with a drizzle of cream and fresh chives
