directions

  • In a large saucepan or flameproof casserole, melt half the butter over moderate heat.
  • Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is golden and starting to brown at the edges, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the chicken broth, potatoes, and water.
  • Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook, partially covered, until the potatoes are soft, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • With a potato masher or the back of a large spoon, mash the potatoes just enough to thicken the soup, but leave plenty of chunks intact.
  • Add the milk and the remaining butter.
  • Season the soup with salt, pepper, nutmeg, and cayenne.
  • Serve piping hot, garnished with the minced chives.

Most of our camping is done in Nevada Utah Arizona and So. California. During the summers our (almost) 9 year old Granddaughter will go with us sometimes.
