"This is a delicious recipe for ham and potato soup that a friend gave to me. It is very easy and the great thing about it is that you can add additional ingredients, more ham, potatoes, etc and it still turns out great."

INGREDIENTS:
3 1/2 cups peeled and diced
potatoes
1/3 cup diced celery
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
3/4 cup diced cooked ham
3 1/4 cups water
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 teaspoon ground white or
black pepper, or to taste
5 tablespoons butter
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk

DIRECTIONS:
1. Combine the potatoes, celery, onion, ham and water in a stockpot. Bring to a boil, then cook over medium heat until potatoes are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the chicken bouillon, salt and pepper.
2. In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour with a fork, and cook, stirring constantly until thick, about 1 minute. Slowly stir in milk as not to allow lumps to form until all of the milk has been added. Continue stirring over medium-low heat until thick, 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Stir the milk mixture into the stockpot, and cook soup until heated through. Serve immediately.

Answer 3

The easiest potato soup that my Dad made used left over potato salad. Put the left over potato salad in a pot, add milk, put it on low heat stir it constantly, add 2 T. bacon drippings and a little bit of butter, next add 1/4 cup water. Keep stirring add some garlic powder to this, keep stirring until really hot or till the edges start to bubble.
Serve hot with garlic french bread.
He made this on days that he was home & Mama was still at work.
It was always so yummy. I know it sounds strange because it has sweet pickes & boiled eggs in it, but it is really good.
I like it this way because it was the only time I didn't mind it, when he cooked.

Answer 6

We call it Tater soup! Now this is just my recipe I usually don't measure but it's close. And I don't put ham, chicken or bacon in it but you certainly can if you want to..
First you have to have red potatoes.
About 4 med. to large red potatoes cut in 1 inch pieces
1/2 to 1 whole onion chopped small
6 cups of chicken broth, (fresh, canned or bouillon cubes)
1 cup cream (canned milk will be fine)
**1/4 cup thinly sliced celery optional
2 heaping Tablespoons of butter or margarine
1/4 t garlic powder or 1 clove chopped
bunch of green onions chopped.
1/2 spoon sugar
Salt & pepper
OK, place your potatoes, celery, butter, salt, pepper, garlic, sugar & chopped onion in the broth, bring to boil, simmer on low uncovered about 15 min. (till just tender). Your liquid should reduce some, kinda smash a few potatoes to thicken it up, then add cream & green onions. Taste & adjust salt pepper etc to your taste. Continue to simmer about 10 min. Let it set for a bit to cool and potatoes to firm. It's so simple but so so delicious!

Do you have a crokc pot? if so then there are various stable recipes for soup and you basically could desire to tutor it on and permit it cook dinner. My fav. is residing house made chili. it quite is not as not person-friendly as all and sundry thinks. I generally start up with: Kidney Beans a million ib. floor beef a million can diced tomatoes a million bell pepper salt pepper chili packet tomatoe sauce a million onion start up purchase putting the beans on low on your crock pot or pot for some hours. i think of the longer the beans take a seat the greater valuable the chili is. So i permit the beans stay in the crock pot or pot for 6 hours. Crock pot is greater valuable reason you are able to bypass to the keep, watch a movei, play with your youngster or bypass to artwork and are available residing house and the long area is over with. cook dinner floor beef seperate in a frying pan. Drain while down. placed floor beef into the pot with chili. upload tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, tomatoe sauce and chili combination and stir. permit accumilate for some a million/2 an hour and luxuriate in!
