Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 3 large potatoes peeled and cubed into 1/2-inch pieces
- 2 carrots sliced in 1/4-inch slices
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese + more for garnish
- Green onions for garnish optional
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef with the diced onion and minced garlic until beef is no longer pink, about 8 minutes. Drain excess fat.
- Add the carrots, beef broth, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cook for about 3-5 minutes to give the carrots a head start.
- Add the potato cubes to the pot. Simmer for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are tender. Begin checking for doneness around the 12-minute mark.
- In a small bowl, whisk the flour into the milk until smooth. Add the butter to the soup, stirring until melted.
- Slowly pour in the milk mixture, stirring continuously. Continue cooking for an additional 5 minutes over low heat, or until the soup has thickened.
- Once the soup has thickened, turn off the heat and gradually stir in the 2 cups of shredded cheese until it melts smoothly into the soup.
- Serve hot, topped with additional shredded cheddar cheese and green onions, if desired.
