To make this Cheesy Broccoli and Potato Chowder, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 cup of chopped broccoli florets
- 1 medium-sized potato, peeled and diced
- 1/4 cup of diced onion
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon of butter
- 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour
- 1 cup of chicken or vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
To start, melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion is translucent. Add the flour and stir until it is well combined with the butter and onion mixture. Gradually add the broth and milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
Add the chopped broccoli and diced potato to the pot and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Once the vegetables are cooked, use an immersion blender or transfer the soup to a blender and blend until smooth. Return the soup to the pot and add the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and well combined.
Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste and serve hot. This Cheesy Broccoli and Potato Chowder is a perfect combination of creamy and savory flavors that will warm you up on a cold day.
