When you have the privilege of being able to grow your own organic vegetables in your very own garden, it's nice to be able to actually make something delicious with the wonderful produce that comes of it. Instead of opting for boiled and roasted potatoes, you might be surprised at the kind of delicious potato soup you can actually make. Let's take a look at 2 easy potato soup recipes to give your dinner table a little variety.
Simple Potato Soup
Ingredients:
- 2 regular potatoes
- 3 eggs
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 cube of chicken consomme
- Salt to taste
Preparation:
Peel and crush the garlic, then wash and peel the potatoes. Start by frying the crushed garlic in a little oil (not too much), then add 10 cups of water and boil. Grate the potatoes as small as you can and add them to the water once it's boiled properly.
Simmer for 15-20 minutes, while you whisk the eggs. Add these last. If you prefer the eggs whole, then feel free to do that too.
Serve with some fresh home-made bread!
A little more complicated version:
If the last recipe was far too simple for you, try this one. With added onion and almonds, the taste is a little more exotic.
Ingredients (4 servings):
- 1 potato per diner
- 1 large onion
- 2 oz of uncooked almonds
- Sprig of parsley
- 2 hardboiled eggs
- 1 tbsp of sweet pepper
- 1 Salt
- Dash of olive oil
- Cube of chicken consomme
Fry the almonds first in a little oil and set aside. Next fry the onions with the pepper in the same oil. Add an appropriate amount of water in your soup pan and boil. Dice the potatoes, and throw them in there with the broth and salt. Simmer it all for about 20 minutes.
Once that's tender, crush the almonds along with the parsley in a mortar, and add to the soup. Dice the hardboiled eggs and add last just before serving.
