Description
A cozy, simple, and forgiving potato soup that is perfect for dinner when you want comfort without the fuss.
Ingredients
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
- 1 cup milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Chopped chives or green onions for garnish
Instructions
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until translucent.
- Add the diced potatoes and stir to combine. Pour in the broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.

- Stir in the milk and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve warm, garnished with chives or green onions.
Notes
For a creamier soup, use half and half or cream. For a lighter version, use vegetable broth and skip some butter.
