Potato Soup
1 1/2 sticks butter
3/4 C flour
1 C diced onion
1 C diced celery
2 C diced potatoes (with skin)
4 C milk
3/4-1 C grated cheddar cheese
Put onion, celery & potatoes in a pot with just enough water to cover veggies. Boil till tender. Make white sauce by melting butter, then stir in flour. Then slowly stir in milk, cover over low/med heat until thick (stirring constantly!) Add cheese. Heat until melted (use some as garnish). Add potatoes, celery & onions to white sauce. Heat till thickened. Season with salt, pepper, & paprika. Chopped chives may be added as garnish.
I usually double the recipe because this doesn't make very much. Great with fresh homemade bread or rolls!
I got this recipe from my good friend and old roommate Tara. Thanks Tee!
