Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef (Halal)
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 3 cups potatoes, diced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup milk
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Garnish
  • chopped green onions for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot, over medium-high heat, add the ground beef. Cook until it’s browned, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Be sure to break up any large clumps.
  2. Once the beef is browned, stir in the chopped onion, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
  3. Now, it’s time to add the diced potatoes. Stir them into the mix, allowing them to mingle for about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Add the beef broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and allow everything to cook for around 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
  5. After the potatoes are tender, lower the heat. Stir in the milk and cheese until everything is melted together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Ladle your warm soup into bowls, garnishing with chopped green onions if desired. Sit back, take a deep breath, and enjoy every comforting bite!

Notes

Feel free to switch up the cheese! Try gouda or mozzarella for a different spin, but ensure any cheese you use is Halal compliant. After cooking, allow the soup to cool fully before storing it in an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of milk if needed.
