Potato Soup - Potato Soup Recipe cooking Process

Heat the butter in a large skillet over
medium heat and sauté the onion to soften.
Add the potato and stir to coat. Place
the mixture in the slow cooker. Add the
chicken broth, chopped broccoli, and bay
leaf. Cover with the lid and cook on high

approximately 4 to 6 hours. Remove the
bay leaf. Turn the slow cooker to low.
Purée the soup in batches in a blender
and return to the slow cooker. Stir in
enough half-and-half to reach the desired
creamy consistency. Season with salt,
white pepper, and nutmeg. Heat on low
just until warmed through; do not let the
soup boil after adding the cream. Serve
immediately.
