Ingredients
| 2 |
cups water |
| 2 |
cups potatoes |
| 3 |
tbsp butter |
| 1 |
small onion |
| 3 |
tablespoons all-purpose flour |
| 1 |
tsp black pepper |
| 3 |
cups milk |
| 1/2 |
tsp sugar |
| 1 |
cup shredded cheddar cheese |
Directions
- 1) Bring water to a boil in large saucepan. Add potatoes and cook until tender. Drain, reserving liquid. Measure 1 cup, adding water if necessary.
- 2) Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender but not brown. Add flour; season with red and black pepper. Cook 3 to 4 minutes. Gradually add potatoes, reserved liquid, milk and sugar to onion mixture; stir well. Add cheese. Simmer over low heat 30 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Tip: Turn simple soup into a filling supper by serving it in individual bread bowls. Buy or bake small, round loaves of a hearty bread, such as Italian or sourdough. Slice a small piece from the top and then remove the inside of the loaf, leaving a 1-1/2 inch shell. Fill with soup and serve.
