Ingredients
- 2 (large) russet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 (stalk) celery, diced
- 1/3 (cup) onion, chopped
- 2 (cup) chicken broth or vegetable broth
- 1 1/4 (cup) half-and-half cream, heated
- 2 (tablespoon) butter, melted
- 2 (tablespoon) all-purpose flour
- Pinch (as needed) salt and pepper, to taste
- Pinch (as needed) freshly ground nutmeg, optional
Directions
- In a large pot, bring potatoes, celery and onion to a boil in 2 cups of broth. Cook until potatoes are fork tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain, reserving cooking liquid and set cooked vegetables aside.
- Add butter to the pot and melt over medium-low heat. Add flour to butter. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, to remove raw taste from flour and make a light roux.
- Slowly add reserved broth back into the pot, stirring constantly to avoid scalding or lumps. Cook until thickened, about 1-2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and add cream. Stir in reserved vegetables. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Garnish with freshly grated nutmeg, if desired.
