You can make this easy, cheesy potato soup in one pot for a creamy, hearty appetizer. It’s classic, fuss-free comfort food that’s ready in less than half an hour.
Instructions
1
Melt the butter over medium heat, then saute a medium chopped onion until it’s slightly crispy at the edges and tender, for five minutes.
2
Boil the diced potatoes
3
Add the medium-sized potatoes and water, cover the pot and simmer until the potatoes are tender. Simmer for about 15 minutes. The tip of a knife should slide in easily, but you don’t want them breaking apart just yet.
4
Stir in the liquid ingredients
5
Stir in milk, condensed soup, garlic salt and pepper for seasoning. Keep stirring over a lowered heat until the soup mix starts to bubble gently. Add the diced cheese and keep stirring until it has all melted. The consistency should be thick and velvety.
6
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve
7
Serve in a bowl, or hollowed-out sourdough bread bowl if you want to enjoy peak comfort food. The soup should be thick enough not to soak through. Editor’s Tip: Sprinkle with chopped bacon bits or garlic croutons for a flavor boost and dust with smoked paprika for color.
