This is the best potato soup ever!!! My boyfriend's mom gave me a recipe similar to this, but over time I adjusted the ingredients until it was just right! Absolutely delicious and 10 X more delicious the next day!!! This is the only soup we eat in winter, it is just awesome!!!
Ingredients:
8 -10 medium potatoes
3 large yellow sweet onions, diced
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk
8 tablespoons parsley, a 1 . 25 oz. bottle
4 cups water
3 tablespoons butter
salt
pepper
Directions:
1. (*The main thing for this recipe is the Parsley! It is very important!*).
2. Peel potatoes and cut them into big bite-sized chunks.
3. Add the 4 cups of water to a big pot, then add all of the potatoes. Add parsley at the same time - usually half of a 1.25 oz bottle, about 6 tbs of parsley.
4. (*the parsley should be very thick in the pot*).
5. Bring to a boil then turn stove down to medium high, let boil for 15 minutes, or until potatoes are cooked .
6. Immediately add the can of cream of chicken and the can of evaporated milk, all of the onions, and 2-3 more tbs of parsley.Don't use the entire 1.25 oz bottle, should be about a tbs left in the bottle.
7. While potatoes are cooking, dice the onions, can have big pieces of onions and slices as well - the onions don't have to be diced into tiny little bits. It is better if the diced onions are bigger dices.
8. Let all ingredients cook for about 20-30 minutes on medium or medium low. Halfway through turn down to low-medium. Add salt and pepper, and more butter if needed.
9. (*I usually don't eat butter in my bowl, so I usually don't add the butter to the pot, just to the individual bowls, but this, again, is just another idea*).
10. (*can replace the cream of chicken with cream of mushroom to make it more of a vegetarian meal*).
11. The next day this is even better. I have even thought about cooking it and not eating it till the next day - but this soup is too irresistable for me to be able to do this!:).
