About this recipe
Potato soup with bacon is a hearty, home-style soup made with vegetable broth, onion, sour cream, and plenty of bacon flavor. Potatoes give it body and make it satisfying, while bacon contributes a salty, lightly smoky note that complements the mild base. Onion starts building flavor early in the cooking process, and sour cream rounds out the broth and makes the texture creamier. It is a simple, substantial potato soup for an everyday lunch.
Ingredients
500 g potatoes
120 g bacon
1 onion
900 ml vegetable broth
2 tablespoons sour cream
Steps
Peel the potatoes and cut them into even cubes, finely chop the onion, and cut the bacon into small strips or dice. Set the sour cream aside to temper at the end.
Put the bacon and onion in a saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until the bacon starts releasing fat and the onion softens. Do not add separate fat; if the onion browns quickly, lower the heat so it has time to soften in the rendered bacon fat.
Add the potatoes to the bacon and onion, pour in the vegetable broth, and cook for 18–25 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the bacon has flavored the soup.
Once the potatoes are tender, remove the saucepan from the heat. In a small bowl, gradually stir a few tablespoons of hot soup into the sour cream. Pour into the saucepan and stir thoroughly. If the soup needs reheating, do so over low heat without boiling vigorously.
