Dana's Potato-Cucumber Soup
This recipe was inspired by a soup I loved at my favorite local restaurant. The owner of the restaurant refused to reveal his recipe, but I craved it so often that I decided to guess the ingredients. I came up with this tasty variation.
Ingredients
2 medium cucumbers, chopped
6-8 white potatoes, diced
8 oz. fat-free sour cream
32 oz. reduced-sodium chicken broth
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 c. yellow onion, finely chopped
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1/4 c. baby dill, coarsely chopped
Kitchen Items
Cutting Board, Chef's Knife, Stock Pot, Stirring Spoon, Measuring Cup
Instructions
Boil 6 cups of water in a medium stock pot. Cook potatoes until slightly tender; drain and set aside. In stock pot, add olive oil, garlic and onion and sautee 2-3 minutes on medium-low heat or until onions are tender. Add the chicken stock and let simmer 5 minutes.
Next, add the cucumber and heat to boiling, 2-3 minutes. Reduce heat and add the sour cream, potatoes and baby dill, stirring several times until mixed through. Let stand 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve with oyster crackers if desired.
