Smoky Potato Cheese Soup

Cooking Recipes Catalogue
Advertizing:

Cubes of processed cheese are stirred into slices of sausage and potatoes cooked in chicken broth to create a thick soup which is thinned to the desired consistency with evaporated milk.

INGREDIENTS (for 8 servings):

PREPARATION:

  • Saute the onions in butter or margarine in a large pan.
  • Add the chicken broth and the cubed potatoes. Slice the smoked sausage into bite size pieces, and add to the soup. Simmer over medium heat until the potatoes are soft.
  • Using a potato masher, lightly mash the potato mixture to break up the cubes a little bit, but not mashing as completely as you would for mashed potatoes.
  • Add the cubed cheese, and stir until melted. Stir in the evaporated milk. Season with black pepper. The soup should be pretty thick, but you can thicken it further with a paste of cornstarch and water. Use about 1 tablespoon of cornstarch at a time, and add it to the soup until you have reached the desired thickness.
