Ingredients- 4 medium potatoes
- 1/2 large green onion (scallion)
- 1 liter water
- 125ml milk
- 125ml heavy cream (optional, can be substituted with more milk)
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 30g butter
- 2 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- Pinch of salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
★ Chef Ryusuyeong’s Tip: If you don’t have heavy cream, you can add a bit more milk. Also, using freshly grated Parmesan cheese instead of pre-grated will give a richer flavor. Adjust according to your preference!
Step 2
First, pour 1 liter of water into a spacious pot and bring it to a boil over high heat. This will be the base for your soup.
Step 3
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and thinly slice them without peeling. Cooking them with the skins on retains nutrients and adds a more robust, nutty flavor.
Step 4
Finely chop the green onion. Chef Ryusuyeong used about half a stalk, but if you prefer a more pronounced aroma, feel free to use a full stalk. The fragrance of the green onion will enhance the soup’s overall flavor profile.
Step 5
Once the water starts boiling vigorously, add all the sliced potatoes to the pot.
Step 6
Next, add the chopped green onion to the pot as well.
Step 7
Pour in 125ml of milk and 125ml of heavy cream. If heavy cream is unavailable, using 250ml of milk will also work well to achieve a creamy texture.
Step 8
Add 30g of butter to enrich the flavor. The butter will melt and contribute a delicious richness to the soup.
Step 9
Now, cover the pot and simmer over medium heat for about 5-10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender enough to be easily pierced with a fork.
Step 10
Once the potatoes are fully cooked, use an immersion blender or a regular blender to purée all the ingredients until smooth. Aim for a velvety consistency without any lumps.
Step 11
Add the 4 slices of cheddar cheese and 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese to the puréed soup. Stir and simmer over low heat until the cheese is completely melted. The cheese will make the soup richer and more flavorful.
Step 12
Continue to simmer for about 5 more minutes to reach your desired consistency. You can adjust the simmering time to thicken or thin the soup. Finally, taste and season with salt as needed. If you have whole Parmesan cheese, grating some extra on top will add even more deliciousness.
Step 13
Your warm and savory potato soup is ready! The wonderful aroma filling your home will surely lift your spirits. Even those who aren’t typically fans of potatoes will likely love this smooth and creamy soup. Enjoy it piping hot!
