Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Welcome! Today, we’re making a delicious potato soup that will add warmth to your table. It’s a simple recipe with a wonderfully deep flavor.
Step 2
First, pour 900ml of store-bought vegetable broth (usually one carton) into a pot. Using pre-made broth allows you to achieve a rich and savory taste without the hassle of making your own.
Step 3
Peel the potatoes, wash them thoroughly, and then cut them into thick, bite-sized pieces, about 1.5-2cm thick. Cutting them this way helps them stay fluffy and prevents them from falling apart when cooked.
Step 4
Add the cut potatoes and 1/2 Tbsp of minced garlic to the pot with the broth. The garlic will enhance the potato’s natural flavor and add depth to the soup. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until the potatoes are tender and fluffy, which should take about 10-15 minutes.
Step 5
Once the potatoes are mostly cooked, stir in 1 Tbsp of fish sauce for added umami. If you don’t have fish sauce, soy sauce or anchovy sauce works well too. As the soup comes to a boil, skim off any foam that rises to the surface with a spoon. This step helps to create a clearer, cleaner-tasting broth.
Step 6
The fish sauce might not be enough for complete seasoning, so add 1 tsp of sea salt to adjust the taste. It’s best to add the salt gradually, tasting as you go, rather than adding it all at once.
Step 7
Finally, add a generous amount of chopped green onions. The fresh, aromatic flavor of the green onions will elevate the overall taste of the potato soup. Let it simmer for another minute after adding the onions.
Step 8
Finish with a pinch of black pepper, if desired. Black pepper enhances the soup’s flavor and helps to eliminate any gamey notes.
Step 9
And there you have it – a delicious, fluffy potato soup! Enjoy this comforting dish with a warm bowl of rice.
