Super easy to make and delicious.
8 c. russet potatoes, diced
1 yellow onion, diced
2 large carrots, peeled and chopped
½ c. celery, chopped
16 oz. (2 cups) cubed ham
1 t. kosher salt
¼ t. fresh cracked black pepper
4 c. chicken broth (Kitchen Basics)
¼ c. unbleached all-purpose white flour
1-1/2 c. milk (see Note)
½ c. low-fat sour cream
Sliced chives or scallion onions (including greens), for garnish if desired.
Add potatoes, onion, carrot, celery, ham, kosher salt, pepper and chicken broth to slow cooker. Cook on low for 7-8 hours or 4-5 hours on high (until potatoes and carrots are tender).
Using a potato masher, mash about 1/3 of the potatoes (don’t worry, ham won’t really mash that much).
In a small bowl, mix flour, milk or heavy cream and sour cream. Add to crock pot and stir to blend.
Cover and cook on high for an additional 15 minutes.
Ladle into bowls and garnish with chives or scallion onions.
