Delicious Soup Recipe... from RON.
I love soup before main meal. Its so appetising...!!

Enjoy it.

 
Hope you are well.

Today I have a secret recipe that will show you how to easily recreate Houlihan's baked potato soup at home. Their baked potato soup is rich, creamy and hands down one of the best around. For a light and balanced meal, serve a cup of this soup with a fresh salad such as this .

Enjoy..... 

Fun & Info @ Keralites.net1 1/2 pounds (2 cups, diced but unpeeled) baking potatoes
1/4 pound butter
2 cups yellow onion -- diced
1/3 cup flour
5 cups water
1/4 cup low sodium chicken base
1 cup instant potato flakes
3/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup milk
salt -- to taste
white pepper -- to taste

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Prick washed potatoes & bake until a fork pierces to the center easily.
Remove potatoes from oven & allow to fully cool.
Remove skin & cut potatoes into 1/2" cubes.
Set aside.

Melt butter in a large saucepan.
 Add onions & saute over low heat for 10 minutes or until onions are translucent.
Don't allow onions to burn.
Add flour to onions & butter and cook 4 - 5 minutes, stirring well until flour is absorbed.
In a separate container, combine water, chicken base, potato flakes & seasonings.
Stir or whisk thoroughly to eliminate lumps.
Add slowly to onion mixture, stirring constantly so no lumps form.
Increase to medium heat & continue cooking until the soup begins to gently simmer.
Add milk & cream, stirring until smooth & lightly thickened.
Simmer for 15 minutes. Do not boil.

Soup should just simmer lightly.
Add cubed baked potatoes & stir to combine.
Remove from heat & serve.
Top each serving with grated cheddar cheese, sliced scallions & bacon pieces.

Serves 6
