Potato And Cheddar Soup Recipes

Steps:

• Add oil to a large pot set over medium-high heat. Add onion and celery and saute for 2 to 3 minutes, or until they start to soften. Add stock and mashed potatoes and bring to a simmer.
• Using a hand blender or regular blender, puree soup until smooth (when using a regular blender, work in batches to prevent messy cleanups!). Add Cheddar, salt, white pepper, dry mustard and hot sauce. Stir to combine and allow the cheese to melt.

Steps:

• Microwave the baking potato for 7 to 8 minutes on high. Carefully remove from microwave using oven mitts. It will be HOT! Set aside until cool enough to touch.
• When potato is cool, cut into 1/2-inch cubes.
• Add Cheese soup, chicken stock, and bacon pieces to a medium pan. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally over medium high heat. Add potato and continue to heat soup for 5 minutes.
• Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with a dollop of sour cream and a few chopped green onions.

Steps:

• 1.Place milk, one potato, cheese, onion, dill weed, rosemary and salt into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure lid.
• 2.Select Variable 1.
• 3.Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 10, then to High.
• 4.Blend for 4-5 minutes or until heavy steam escapes from the vented lid.
• 5.Reduce speed to Variable 3.
• 6.Remove the lid plug. Drop in remaining potato and bacon. Blend for an additional 10 seconds, until chopped.

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large pan with just enough water to cover them and crumble in the stock cubes. Bring to the boil, then cover and cook for 5 mins. Add the courgettes, put the lid back on and cook for 5 mins more. Throw in the spring onions, cover and cook for a final 5 mins.
• Take off the heat, then stir in the cheese and season with the nutmeg, salt and pepper. Whizz to a thick soup, adding more hot water until you get the consistency you like. Serve scattered with extra grated cheddar, spring onions and nutmeg or pepper. Or cool and freeze in freezer bags or containers with good lids for up to 3 months.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, saute' onion and celery in butter until tender.
• Add potatoes and broth; bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
• Puree in small batches in a blender until smooth; return to the pan.
• (I return it to a different pan. Another pan to clean, but it makes it easier for me.) Stir in the cheese, milk, pepper and paprika.
• Cook and stir over low heat until the cheese is melted.
• Garnish with parsley and croutons, if desired.

Steps:

• Peel and grate the carrots and potatoes (putting the potatoes into water so they don't turn colors).
• Chop the onions. (I like a large dice on onions though I tried to make this one a bit smaller. If you are so inclined, chop them fine.).
• Heat approximately 1 teaspoons olive oil in a large stock pot. (I spray the bottom of the pan a few times with a mister filled with olive oil.) Add the onions and stir. (At this point I spray a little more olive oil on top of the onions.).
• Once the onions are soft, add the broth, the carrots, the potatoes (wring them out if they have been sitting in water), and the hominy. Stir well.
• Then add the herbes, the bay leaf, the hot sauce, the worcestershire sauce, the sugar, and salt and pepper to taste if desired.
• Let it cook on medium until the vegetables are tender (approximately 20 minutes but I had mine grated thick. If yours are grated thin it could be less.).
• Add the half and half, the skim milk, and the cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted.
• Remove the bay leaf and serve with crusty bread.

Steps:

• In a large pot, melt butter and add flour.
• Cook for 2 minutes.
• Whisk in milk, stirring constantly, bring mixture to a boil to thicken.
• Add potatoes, garlic, onions.
• Simmer for 10 minutes Add in cheese, sour cream, salt, pepper, old bay, and bacon.
• Heat til cheese is melted and serve!
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In large stock pot, bring beer and broth to a boil. Add potatoes, bay leaves, basil and oregano. Boil for about 30 mins or till potatoes are soft, stiring occasionally to prevent sticking.
• Melt butter in a large fry pan. Add onions, celery, carrots, garlic and tomatoes. Simmer on low till very soft and pasty. This may take 20 to 30 minutes.
• Add remaining ingredients except for cheese to tomato mixture, mix well. Add the tomato mixture to the potatoes and add cheese. Bring back to simmer long enough to heat through.
• Remove bay leaves and enjoy.

Steps:

• In a large, heavy-bottomed Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the stock, and then the milk. Add the potatoes and bring the soup to a boil over high heat. Decrease the heat to low and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
• Add the cheese, about 1/3 cup at a time, stirring until melted and smooth after each addition. Taste and adjust for seasoning with salt and pepper.
• To serve, ladle the soup into warmed bowls. Sprinkle with chives and croutons and serve immediately.
• Bacon Croutons:
• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, combine the bread, bacon, oil, and pepper. Toss to coat. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crisp and the croutons are golden, about 20 minutes.
