Alicia Joseph is here to share a hearty recipe that’s easy and tasty.
Since most of my mom’s recipes are all in her head and she “eyeballs” most of the ingredients, it was hard to get one from her that she can actually give me precise measurements, but I think I found one. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does.
Potato soup
- 6 med size potatoes
- 1 med size raw onion or one med – lg leek, green onions may also be used
- 3 to 4 stalks celery, chopped fine (some leaves are good)
- 2-3 cups of milk
- 2 tbsp. oleo or butter
Peel and cut the potatoes into approximately ¼ inch cubes.
Add them in a large kettle, along with the onion or leek and celery. Cover with enough water to be visible at the top of potatoes. (Do not completely cover with water.) Boil until potatoes are tender and slightly mushy.
Add just enough milk to make the soup a consistency of your choice.
Add oleo or butter.
Heat only until liquid appears ready to boil. Do not let this soup boil.
Place in soup bowls and enjoy!
