Old Fashioned Potato Soup | Comfort Food| Restless Chipotle

Peel and dice 1 pound of potatoes.

Boil salted water in a stock pot.

Add diced potatoes to boiling water and cook for 5-10 minutes until tender.

In a separate pot, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and sauté diced onion until translucent, avoiding browning.

Once onions are tender, add cooked potatoes to the pot with onions.

Add 3 tablespoons of butter, 1 cup of evaporated milk, and 1 cup of heavy cream to the pot.

Stir in garlic powder and salt, starting with 1 teaspoon, and adjust to taste after simmering.

Let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes to combine flavors.

If a thicker soup is desired, blend a portion of the cooked potatoes with some liquid and return it to the pot.
