Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 1/2 cups peeled and diced potatoes
1/3 cup diced celery
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
3/4 cup diced cooked ham
3 1/4 cups water
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1 teaspoon pepper (white or black to taste)
5 tablespoons butter
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk

Steps:

  • 1. Combine the potatoes, celery, onion, ham and water in a stockpot. Bring to a boil, then cook over medium heat until potatoes are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the chicken bouillon, salt and pepper.
  • 2. In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour with a fork, and cook, stirring constantly until thick, about 1 minute. Slowly stir in milk as not to allow lumps to form until all of the milk has been added. Continue stirring over medium-low heat until thick, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • 3. Stir the milk mixture into the stockpot, and cook soup until heated through. Serve immediately.
  • My Note: We don't care for cooked celery so I use a little celery seed . I use this recipe as a base also, with many variations , such as -- no meat at all , italian sausage & extra onion, (my favorite), diced chicken breast & (presteamed) broccoli (my grandkids' favorite !)and coming soon .garlic, chicken breast, baby carrots, frozen corn,green beans and coarsely chopped onion. Making the white sauce separately really added the right creaminess to the potato/ham & veggie mixture. I used a can of chicken broth for part of the liquid, as I didn't have any bullion. Also threw in some shredded carrots I had on hand, plus 1/2 cup shredded cheese to the white sauce after it had thickened. Also, (to disguise the carrots), added a sprinkle of cheese to each bowl upon serving. Very creamy and tasty. Maybe a possibly of adding corn next time.

Yield 8 bowls, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 1/2 cups peeled and diced potatoes
1/3 cup diced celery
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
3/4 cup diced cooked ham
3 1/4 cups water
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1 teaspoon ground black pepper (or to taste)
5 tablespoons butter
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk

Steps:

  • Combine the potatoes, celery, onion, ham and water in a stockpot. Bring to a boil, then cook over medium heat until potatoes are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the chicken bouillon, salt and pepper.
  • In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour with a fork, and cook, stirring constantly until thick, about 1 minute.

  • Stir the milk mixture into the stockpot, and cook soup until heated through. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better in soups and stews than starchy potatoes, such as Russet or Idaho potatoes.
  • Cut the potatoes into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too many potatoes to the pot, they won't cook evenly.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
  • Serve the soup hot: Ham and potato soup is best served hot, with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Ham and potato soup is a delicious and easy-to-make comfort food. It's perfect for a cold winter day or a busy weeknight.
