Creamy Potato Soup with Fresh Rosemary

Thursday, September 9th, 2010

I made this soup last night because I had potatoes that I needed to use up. MUCH to my surprise this soup was DELISH!!!! So simple that I would not have thought so!

As I was cooking it I was tempted to add cream. I tasted it and fell in love!

Creamy Three Potato Soup with Fresh Rosemary

Ingredients

* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* 1 red onion, chopped
* 6 potatos, peeled and chopped
* 2 cups chicken stock
* 1 1/2 cups water
* 1/8 cup butter
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary)

Pour the olive oil into your soup pan and let it warm up while you dice the onion. Add the onion and let cook until the onions are translucent. Add the cut up potatoes, stock, water, butter, salt and rosemary. Reduce heat to lowest heat setting. Cover and let simmer until potatoes are done. Use a slotted spoon or a potato masher and mash up the potatoes. There will be some lumps. Ladle into bowls.

I used garden fresh rosemary and diced up a couple of sprigs. I also topped mine with black pepper and a little diced parsley.

YUM CITY!
