Directions:
- Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan.
- Add potato cubes and stir to make sure they are just covered with water.
- Cook potatoes until fork tender, maybe 10 minutes.
- Drain potatoes and set aside.
- In a large pot melt butter over medium heat and stir in onion. If using real onion cook until just translucent.
- Stir in the flour and cook stirring constantly for at least a minute to get rid of the raw flour taste. (If you've never worked with roux it will look like a really thick paste at this point. That's great- keep stirring :) ).
- Add red pepper flakes and salt & pepper.
- Slowly add the 1 cup of broth stirring as you pour it into the roux. Stir until smooth.
- Start adding the milk and cream and stir until smooth.
- Bring the mixture up to a low simmer stirring constantly. Simmer 2-3 minutes.
- Add the sugar and the shredded cheese.
- Stir until cheese is melted.
- Stir in Bacon or Ham and potatoes and cook for 1 minute to heat potatoes thru.
