This is a delicious recipe for ham and potato soup that a friend gave to me. It is very easy and the great thing about it is that you can add additional ingredients, more ham, potatoes, etc., and it still turns out great. Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups peeled and diced potatoes |
1 cup diced cauliflower |
1 cup frozen corn |
3/4 cup diced cooked ham |
1/3 cup finely chopped onion |
1/3 cup diced celery |
3 cloves garlic, diced |
4 cups water, or as needed to cover |
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules |
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste |
1 teaspoon ground white pepper |
5 tablespoons butter |
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
2 cups milk |
Directions:
1. Combine potatoes, cauliflower, corn, cooked ham, onion, celery, and garlic in a large soup pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and cook until potatoes are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir chicken bouillon, salt, and white pepper into mixture.
2. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; whisk in flour to make a paste. Cook for 1 minute and gradually whisk milk into flour mixture until smooth. Continue cooking until thick, 4 to 5 minutes, whisking often.
3. Stir milk mixture into soup and cook until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes.
