👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Heat the achiote oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the diced yellow onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-8 minutes.
⏱️ 5-8 minutes - 2
Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
⏱️ 1 minute - 3
Add the diced potatoes to the pot and stir to coat them with the onion and garlic mixture. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Pour in the chicken or vegetable stock, ensuring the potatoes are mostly covered. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are very tender and falling apart, about 15-20 minutes.
⏱️ 15-20 minutes - 5
Using a potato masher or an immersion blender, mash about half to two-thirds of the potatoes directly in the pot to thicken the soup. Leave some potato chunks for texture.
💡 專業提示: Be careful not to over-mash if you prefer some texture. - 6
Stir in the milk and heavy cream (if using). Heat through gently over low heat, but do not bring to a boil.
💡 專業提示: Simmering too vigorously can cause the milk to curdle. - 7
Add the cubed queso fresco to the soup and stir until it is partially melted and incorporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
💡 專業提示: Some cheese can be reserved for garnish. - 8
Serve hot, garnished with fresh avocado slices and chopped cilantro. Additional crumbled queso fresco can also be added on top.
💡 專業提示
- ✓Using starchy potatoes like Russets or Papa Chola is key for a creamy texture.
