Potato Leek Chowder Robusto!

"The addition of Robusto cheese really makes all the difference in this great spin on a traditional potato chowder. Robusto is a cousin to Parmesan with a deeper, smoky flavor. You can find it at World Market and most other local grocery stores."

directions

  • Heat butter and oil in large pot over medium heat, stirring until butter is melted. Whisk in flour.
  • Add potatoes, leeks, and onions. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions are clear and potatoes are slightly softened.
  • Add broth and cover tightly. Simmer for 20-25 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender.
  • At this point you can do one of two things. You can remove half of the soup to a blender and puree, or you can use a potato masher and just mash the potatoes in the pot to the consistency that you desire.
  • Stir in milk, bacon and cheese. Cover and simmer for 2-3 mintues or until cheese is melted. If you would like your chowder to be a little thicker, you can add a few teaspoons of corn starch or flour to thicken.
  • Garnish as desired and serve with a crusty bread.
