This is a modification of generic potato soup, but a very tasty one!
Ingredients:
Instructions:
(1) Dice the onion and saute it in the butter or other fat until soft.
(2) Meanwhile, smash the garlic cloves and cut them up a bit. Add them to the onion. Stir often.
(3) Peel and dice the carrot. Slice up the celery. Add these to the cooking onion and garlic. Stir in the curry powder, salt, and pepper.
(4) When the onion is soft enough, pour in the chicken broth. Add about a cup of water. Bring to a boil and then simmer WHILE
(5) Cut the potato into small chunks. You can peel if you like, but I prefer to eat the peels as well. Add cut up potato to the broth mix.
(6) Simmer for about 15 minutes.
(7) Add the peas (I use frozen, though I heat them a bit in the microwave before I add them in). Cook for another five minutes or so.
(8) Using an immersion blender OR a regular blender, blend to a nice gruel-like texture. (I fish out about a cup of cooked potatoes first, bc texture. Stir these back in once you've blended the rest to a gruel.)
(9) Stir in the half-and-half. If you prefer, you can use all milk, or even all cream.
(10) Heat to a simmer.
This is great with sourdough bread, or any bread, really.
