About This Recipe
A comforting classic, this easy potato soup uses a handful of store cupboard ingredients to great effect.
Instructions
Method
-
Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan. When it foams, add the potatoes and onions and toss them in the butter until well coated.

Add the milk and purée the soup in a blender or food processor. Taste and adjust seasoning.
