Ingredients
2 ½ lbs gold potatoes peeled and diced into pieces no larger than 1” (this was about 6 Large potatoes for me/1.15kg)
6 strips (uncooked) bacon cut into small pieces
3 Tablespoons butter
⅓ cup allpurpose flour 42g
1 medium yellow onion chopped (about 1.5 cup/200g)
3 large garlic cloves minced
4 cups chicken broth 945ml
2 cups milk 475ml
2/3 cup heavy cream 155ml
1 ½ teaspoon* salt
1 teaspoon ground pepper
1/4 1/2 teaspoon ancho chili powder**
2/3 cup sour cream 160g
Shredded cheddar cheese, chives, and additional sour cream and bacon for topping optional

Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:27 Place bacon pieces in a large Dutch Oven or soup pot over medium heat and cook until bacon is crisp and browned.
01:07 Remove bacon pieces and set aside, leaving the fat in the pot.
01:21 Add butter and chopped onion and cook over medium heat until onions are tender (35 minutes).
01:39 Add garlic and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
02:01 Sprinkle the flour over the ingredients in the pot and stir until smooth (use whisk if needed).
02:25 Add diced potatoes to the pot along with chicken broth, milk, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and ancho chili powder. Stir well.
03:40 Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork (about 10 minutes).
04:00 Reduce heat to simmer and remove approximately half*** of the soup to a blender (be careful, it will be hot!) and puree until smooth (this is about 5 cups of soup, but just eyeballing the amount will be fine. Alternatively you can use an immersion blender.).
04:50 Return the pureed soup to the pot and add sour cream and reserved bacon pieces, stir well.
05:15 Allow soup to simmer for 15 minutes before serving.
05:20 Top with additional sour cream, bacon, cheddar cheese, or chives. Enjoy!

Notes
*I recommend starting with a more reserved amount of salt and then adding more as needed, the amount of salt needed will vary depending on the type/brand of broth you use
**If you haven't used ancho chili powder before, I recommend starting with 1/4 teaspoon and then tastetesting before increasing to 1/2 teaspoon if you like the taste.
***If you want a completely creamy soup you can puree all of it, just puree in batches, about half of the soup at a time. I prefer my potato soup with actual chunks of potatoes and prefer to puree just half of it.
