Recipe Introduction
This soup is piled high with tasty goodness that each person dumps on according to tastes and appetites. Carry chicken broth in cans or cartons or use 6 cups water and 6 chicken bouillon cubes. Bring as many toppings as you like.
List of Ingredients
½ stick butter
3 cans, 15 ounces each, diced potatoes, well drained
1 large or 2 medium onions, diced
6 cups chicken broth
13-ounce can evaporated milk
Potato flakes (optional)
Dump-On Toppings
Bring as many as you like. Ideas include:
Shredded Cheddar cheese or thin slabs of Romano
Sour cream or creme fraiche
Real bacon bits or fried-out tidbits of salt pork
Dried chives, parsley or other herbs
Croutons, pretzels or cheese crackers
Sliced scallions, diced tomatoes
Shredded carrots or other root vegetables
Recipe
In a roomy saucepan, melt the butter over medium flame and stir in the onions and potatoes to coat well. Stir-fry to brown potatoes and onion. Add broth, cover, reduce flame and simmer until onions are tender. Stir in milk and heat through. Do not boil.
If you prefer a thicker soup, slowly stir in potato flakes a tablespoon at a time. For a thinner soup, add more broth, water or bouillon.
Ladle into soup bowls and pass toppings around so everyone can "doctor" their own soup.
