This is one of my dad's recipes that has become a true favorite. I've actually tweeked the originally recipe a bit because I love the extra flavor a bay leaf and onion soup mix gives to the boiled potatoes. Ingredients:
9-12 potatoes, cut into bite-size chunks (if using red no need to peel |
1-2 bay leaves, depending on the size |
1 package lipton onion soup mix (or store brand) |
2 cans cheddar cheese soup, concentrate (like campbells) |
8 ounce sour cream |
2 soup cans full milk |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1/2 cup butter |
1-2 cups diced ham (any kind will do) |
salt & pepper to taste. |
Directions:
1. Place potatoes into a pot and cover with water. 2. Add onion soup mix & bay leaves and boil until potatoes are cooked, 20-30 minutes. 3. While potatoes are cooking melt butter in a pan. 4. Add onions and saute for 5-10 minutes. 5. Drain potatoes, but *SAVE* 1 1/2 cups of the boiling water and set aside. 6. Combine both cans cheddar cheese soup and sour cream into a crock pot. 7. Whisk in milk and the reserved onion potato water. 8. Add potatoes, onion and ham and season with salt & pepper to taste. 9. Cook in crock pot over High = 3-4 hours *OR* Low = all day. |
