I accidently stumbled across this recipe when I was using an instant mash potato mix and ended up with waaaay too much water. It resulted in a soupy potato base, which can serve as the base for a lot of quick and easy soups!
Start with twice or 3 times the recommended amount of water stated on the instructions of the instant mash packet (u can use water, milk or be totally decadent and use double cream!)
Corn and potato soup
Add several tblsp canned corn.
Onion and potato soup
Saute 1/2 chopped white onion until it carameralises and add to the soup base.
Leek and potato soup
Saute 1 chopped leek slowly and add to soup base.
Bacon and potato soup
Fry chopped bacon until crispy and add to potato soup.
In all instances, always add salt and pepper to taste.
The possibilities are endless and it depends on how hardworking (ie how much frying/sauteing/cooking) you want to be or how lazy (just add milk or cream) you want to be!
