Description

A hearty and comforting Hamburger Potato Soup recipe made with ground beef, tender potatoes, and a creamy broth. This easy one-pot meal is perfect for weeknight dinners or a cozy evening.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 4 medium potatoes, diced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 medium carrots, sliced
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup milk or cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, optional

Instructions

  1. In a large soup pot, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned, breaking it into crumbles. Drain excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion, garlic, carrots, and celery to the pot. Sauté for about five minutes until the vegetables soften.
  3. Stir in the diced potatoes and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for two to three minutes.
  4. Pour in the beef broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about fifteen minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  5. In a small pan, melt the butter and whisk in the flour to create a roux. Cook for one to two minutes until slightly golden.
  6. Slowly whisk in the milk or cream, stirring continuously to avoid lumps, until thickened.
  7. Pour the creamy roux into the soup pot, stirring until the broth thickens.
  8. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  9. Simmer the soup for another five minutes to let flavors combine.
  10. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with bread or crackers.

Notes

  • Add corn or peas for sweetness.
  • Sprinkle in red pepper flakes or chili powder for spice.
  • Use half and half or add shredded cheese for extra creaminess.
  • Try adding thyme or rosemary for added fragrance.
  • Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version, or use lentils or vegetarian crumbles for a plant-based option.
  • Leftovers taste even better the next day.
