Directions:
- Heat the oil or butter over medium flame in a large pot. Add the onion and garlic and simmer until the onion is translucent.
- Stir in the potatoes, water or stock, milk, salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer until potatoes are falling apart, 30-45 minutes.
- Mash the potatoes up a bit with the back of a spoon to thicken the soup, leaving it a little chunky.
- Remove the soup from heat and stir in the cheese.
- Adjust seasoning and serve immediately.
- *Variations:.
- A handful of corn kernels is often added to this soup. Use about 1 cup and add after the soup has simmered for about 20-30 minutes.
- Chopped avocado is often used as a garnish.
