Potato Chowder
Feast your eyes on this creamy, dreamy goodness:
Ingredients
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Optional: Chopped green onions or bacon bits for garnish
Instructions
- Start by melting the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Toss in the chopped onion and celery, cooking until they’re soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
- Add the diced potatoes and chicken broth to the pot. Bring everything to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the potatoes are tender, which should take around 15-20 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and milk until smooth. Gradually stir this mixture into the pot, making sure to combine it well so there are no lumps.
- Keep stirring the chowder until it thickens up; this should take about 5 minutes. Once you’ve reached that creamy consistency, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it’s melted and fully incorporated.
- Season your chowder with salt and pepper to taste, letting the flavors blend together.
- Serve hot, and if you like, top it with some chopped green onions or crispy bacon bits for that extra flair!
Now, sit back and enjoy this better-than-a-hug bowl of Potato Chowder with your loved ones. It’s sure to warm your heart and fill your belly!
