Ingredients For Sausage Potato Soup
- 1 lb. ground pork sausage
- 5 cups sliced potatoes
- 2 onions, sliced
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. celery seeds
- 3 tbs. finely chopped fresh parsley
- 2 1/2 to 3 cups whole milk
Step By Step Directions: Sausage Potato Soup
1 In a large saucepan over medium heat, add the sausage. Stir frequently and break the meat into crumbles as it cooks. Cook about 8 minutes or until the sausage is well browned and no longer pink. Drain off the excess grease. Remove the sausage from the pan and set it aside.
2 Add the potatoes, onions, water, salt, and celery seeds to the saucepan. Stir until well combined and bring the water to a boil. When the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. The potatoes should be tender. Using a fork or spatula, lightly mash the potato slices. The potatoes do not have to be smooth. You still want to have chunks of potatoes.
3 Add the sausage, parsley, and 2 1/2 cups of milk to the pan. Stir until combined and cook only until the soup is thoroughly heated. If the soup is too thick for your taste, add the remaining 1/2 cup milk. Remove the pan from the heat and serve.
