培根奶酪土豆浓汤Bacon and Cheese Potato Soup---可以代代相传的美味


土豆是我们家一年四季的常备菜,或煎或炒或煮或烤,亦饭亦菜,怎么做都爱,奶香浓郁的土豆浓汤更是孩子们的大爱。每次听到妈妈要做Potato soup,孩子们会兴奋夸张地大喊大叫,吃饭时更时不时地“More, please!”,两张甜甜的小嘴巴也没忘了不住地谢妈妈,宝丹甚至说“Mum, I am so lucky that your hobby is cooking, not watching TV.培根奶酪土豆浓汤---可以代代相传的美味

上次孩子们又在幸福地喝土豆汤的时候,宝妮突然冒出一句“妈妈,将来我也要做Potato soup给我的孩子喝”。宝丹则加了句“妈妈,我还要做给我的grandchildren”。孩子们的话逗乐了妈妈,也提醒了妈妈,把方子为孩子们写下来,将来,妈妈做不动啦或者妈妈不在身边的时候,孩子们就可以照着方子自己做啦。再将来,我的great-grandchildren津津有味地喝着Potato soup的时候,他她们的妈妈会自豪地说,这个Potato soup啊,是妈妈的妈妈的妈妈传下来的培根奶酪土豆浓汤---可以代代相传的美味

3、汤锅里放一小块黄油加热溶化,加洋葱炒香,放胡萝卜芹菜翻炒,放土豆块稍微翻炒;
4、加6-8杯鸡汤,没过土豆的量,中火煮至土豆变软;
