Recipe Introduction
This is a good soup. I like it very much because you can top it with any amount of bacon cheese or scallions. Or you can leave it plain if you like. But then it would not be Ulitmate**********Posted by: Kooksie
List of Ingredients
Yields 8 (1 cup) servings or 4 main dish servings
3 pounds all-purpose potatoes, scrubbed
and pierced in several places
1 tablespoon butter
1 1/2 cups finely chopped onions
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can chicken broth
3 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Toppings
Shredded Cheddar cheese
Crumbled bacon (I use precooked bacon nuked till crisp)
Chopped scallions
Recipe
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Bake potatoes 1 hour or until tender when pierced. Peel when cool enough to handle.
Melt Butter in a 4- to 6-quart pot over medium low heat. Stir in onions and garlic; cover and cook 10 minutes until soft, but not brown. Add 2/3 of the potatoes and mash with a potato masher. Add broth, milk, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
Cut remaining potatoes in small cubes. Add to soup and stir gently to reheat. Sprinkle each serving with toppings.
