Creamy Ham and Potato Soup
Ingredients
  • 3 1/2 cups peeled and diced potatoes
  • 3 1/4 cups water
  • 3/4 cup diced cooked ham
  • 1/3 cup diced celery
  • 1/3 cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
  • 1 teaspoon ground white or black pepper, or to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 5 tablespoons butter
  • 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk
Instructions
1
Acquire all necessary components.
2
Combine diced potatoes, water, thinly sliced ham, chopped celery, and minced onion in a large stockpot. Initiate boiling; maintain a gentle simmer over medium heat until the potatoes reach optimal tenderness, approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Introduce chicken bouillon powder, black pepper, and salt into the mixture.
3
Melt butter in a separate saucepan over low-medium heat. Combine flour and stir until it forms a smooth, thick paste, roughly 1 minute. Whisk in milk; continue cooking and stirring until the mixture reaches a desired consistency, about 4 to 5 minutes.
4
Gradually pour the milk mixture into the stockpot; continue cooking and stirring until warmed through.

Serve and indulge!
