Nan's Baked Potato Soup Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Cut the peels off the cooled baked potatoes See Photo. Deep fry them until golden and crispy, or pan fry in the bacon fat. Drain on paper towels and save to garnish your finished soup.
  • Place a large soup pot or heavy casserole over medium heat. Add bacon drippings and cook the onions, stirring frequently, until translucent. Add garlic and cook another 2 minutes, stirring.
  • Rough chop the baked potatoes. Add to the soup pot along with the chicken stock, heavy cream and butter. While stirring the soup, mash up some of the potatoes with the back of the spoon to help thicken the soup.
  • Add the shredded cheese a little at a time while stirring so that it melts into the soup. Season to taste with salt and pepper See Photo. (Some might like to add a bit of celery seed.)
  • Ladle into bowls and top with desired garnishes.
