   How to make mashed potato soup with croutons in a blender? Prepare your food. Fresh herbs will be needed to serve the finished dish; I used fresh dill. I use 10% cream. Salt and pepper to taste, you can add your favorite spices. To prepare the soup you will need 500 ml of hot water or broth. There are several slices of bread, but this is for reference as to who likes how many croutons in the soup. Turn on the oven and preheat it to 190 degrees to prepare the crackers.

2. STEP 2

   

   Cut white bread into small cubes. Place the sliced ​​bread on a baking sheet in a single layer and place it in the preheated oven for about 15 to 20 minutes. The exact time depends on your oven. You can learn about the operating features of ovens by reading a separate article, link at the end of the recipe.

   You need to keep an eye on the bread in the oven and stir it if necessary. Place the finished crackers in a bowl and cool.

   In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. An article about saucepans will help you choose the ideal saucepan, link at the end of the recipe. Peel and chop the onion and garlic. You can chop as desired, since the soup will be pureed, but not coarsely, so as not to increase the cooking time of the soup. Place the chopped onion and garlic in a pan with oil and fry until transparent, stirring constantly.

   Peel the potatoes and cut into medium cubes. Place the chopped potatoes in a saucepan with the onion and garlic and cook over medium heat for about 5 - 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add bay leaf, salt and pepper to taste to the potatoes, pour in hot water or broth. and place the saucepan with soup over medium heat. Cook over medium heat until the potatoes are soft. Depending on the size of the chopped potatoes, this may take about 15 - 20 minutes.

   When the potatoes are cooked, remove the bay leaf from the pan and puree the potatoes in a blender. If necessary, add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.

8. STEP 8

   

   Pour the cream into the pureed soup, stir and heat the soup over medium heat for about 2 minutes. If the consistency of the soup seems thick, you can increase the amount of cream or add more hot water.

I made puree soup with croutons in a blender from new potatoes. Instead of butter, I used vegetable oil, the cream was 10% (I think that it can even be replaced with full-fat milk). I used freeze-dried garlic, and the spices were nutmeg and ground black pepper on the tip of a knife. I brought it to the required consistency by adding a few tablespoons of vegetable broth. The mild spicy aroma and delicate creamy taste of mashed potatoes make this creamy soup a gourmet dish. I really liked it!

At my daughter’s request, I prepared a creamy soup with croutons in a blender. It's very simple and fast! For the soup, I took a saucepan with a thick bottom so that I could fry in it. Fry diced onion and garlic in butter. Then I added the potatoes and cut them into smaller pieces so that they could cook faster. I simmered it together with the onion, added water and cooked until tender. It will be even tastier with chicken broth! I drained the remaining vegetable broth to adjust the thickness. I pureed the vegetables, diluted them with cream and poured in the broth (almost all of it). The soup was brought to a boil and served immediately. At my daughter’s request, I made the croutons not into cubes, but into slices. I dried the ciabatta pieces, they are fragile, airy and easily get wet in the soup. Wonderful tender soup, very tasty, velvety! I recommend!
