Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound bacon roughly chopped
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 1 large carrot peeled and diced
  • 3/4 cup diced celery
  • 4 large Russet potatoes peeled and diced
  • 4 medium red potatoes diced
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • Coarse salt freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • 4 cups heavy whipping cream
  • Optional garnishes: chopped chives bacon bits, sour cream, shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese

Instructions
 

  • In a 6- to 8-quart stockpot over medium heat, fry bacon until crisp.
  • Remove bacon and drain on paper towels, reserving half for garnish. In bacon fat, cook onions, carrots, and celery until the onions are translucent. Add potatoes and cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Whisk in flour and stir constantly over low heat until the flour is cooked and the mixture has thickened slightly, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add chicken stock and half of the bacon. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Over medium-high heat, bring the soup to a simmer and cook for 25 minutes or until the potatoes are soft. Mash some of the potatoes for thicker, creamier texture. Add whipping cream and simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Adjust thickness by adding water or stock. Soup should have a creamy consistency.
  • Season to taste, and garnish with toppings.
