CHICKEN, HAM & POTATO SOUP

• 份量: 4

配料

1 Kg potatoes - 1 cm dice

1 medium onion - diced

60 gms celery - thinly sliced

1 litre chicken stock

1 can of cream of chicken soup

2 tsp cracked black pepper

Salt to taste

250 gms lardons

125 gms Philadelphia cream cheese

Garnish

Shredded cheese

Crumbled cooked bacon

步骤

Parboil the diced potatoes in salted water for about 7 minutes. Drain and set aside.

In a large soup pan, stir together chicken or ham broth and can of cream of chicken or ham soup, then stir in the diced onion, thin celery slices, lardons and pepper.

Cook on medium heat about 15 – 20 minutes, until potatoes are cooked through. Put the soup through a blender or just mash to the desired consistency.

Add in the softened cream cheese. I mashed it on a paper plate and put in the microwave for 15-20 seconds, so that it is soft enough to melt in the soup quickly.

Stir into the hot soup and continue cooking for another 30 minutes.

Garnish with shredded cheese and crumbled, crisp bacon.
