Instructions

  1. Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes about 1 cm each.
  2. Dice the onion finely and mince the garlic clove.
  3. In a medium pot, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.
  4. Add the diced onion to the pot and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
  6. Add the diced potatoes to the pot and stir to combine with the onion and garlic.
  7. For in the low sodium chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
  8. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 15-20 minutes until potatoes are tender.
  9. Using a hand blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth and creamy, or leave some chunks if preferred.
  10. Stir in the whole milk and season with salt and ground black pepper to taste.
  11. Heat the soup gently for 2-3 minutes more without boiling to combine flavors.
  12. Serve the soup hot garnished with chopped fresh chives.

Tips

  • Use low sodium broth to control saltiness.
  • Do not overblend if you prefer a chunkier texture.
  • Add a pinch of smoked paprika for a smoky flavor twist.
