Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 cup onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup carrots, shredded
  • 1/2 cup celery, diced
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 4 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup sour cream

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Separate pan
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Optional: Immersion blender

Method
 

  1. In a large pot, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the ground beef, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook until the beef is browned and the onions are tender. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the potatoes, carrots, celery, and chicken broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes.
  3. In a separate pan, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the milk, cooking until the mixture thickens.
  4. Slowly add the roux to the soup pot, stirring continuously. Let the soup simmer for another 5-7 minutes to thicken.
  5. Stir in the cheddar cheese until melted and incorporated into the soup.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in the sour cream until fully blended.
  7. Serve hot with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For extra creaminess, blend part of the soup with an immersion blender before adding cheese and sour cream. Substitute ground beef with turkey or chicken for a lighter option. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Toppings like chopped green onions, crumbled bacon, or crispy fried onions enhance both flavor and appearance. Enjoy your cooking!
