Description
- Enjoy a warm, comforting bowl of Hearty Beef and Potato Soup with Cheddar Cheese—perfect for chilly days
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 large yellow onion, finely diced (about 1 ½ cups)
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 4 cups beef broth
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and diced (about 4 cups diced potatoes)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper, to taste
- 1 ½ cups shredded mild cheddar cheese (plus extra for garnish)
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat over medium heat. Add the ground beef and diced onions. Cook the beef, breaking it apart as it browns, until it’s fully cooked and the onions are softened, about 8-10 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Stir in the beef broth, diced potatoes, paprika, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Gradually stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, adding a little at a time. Stir continuously to allow the cheese to melt smoothly into the soup.
- Pour in the heavy cream and mix well. Let the soup heat through for an additional 3-5 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Slowly pour the slurry into the soup while stirring. Continue to simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the soup thickens to your desired consistency.
- Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley and extra shredded cheese.
- Details: This creamy and comforting beef and potato soup is the perfect dish for chilly days. The savory combination of ground beef, Yukon Gold potatoes, and melted cheddar cheese in a rich broth creates a filling and satisfying meal.
