Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb ground beef (halal certified)
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups potatoes, diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (ensure halal)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Toppings
  • croutons
  • green onions

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot, over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until it’s browned and crumbly, breaking it apart as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  2. Stir in the chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
  3. Add 4 cups of beef broth to the pot to form the base for your creamy soup.
  4. Toss in the diced potatoes and season with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Allow the soup to reach a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
  5. Once the potatoes are cooked, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and milk. Let it cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the soup is warm and creamy.
  6. Ladle the soup into bowls and top with croutons and green onions, if desired.

Notes

For a lighter option, you can use ground chicken or turkey instead of beef. For a vegetarian version, substitute ground beef with lentils or a meaty vegetable blend. If you find leftovers, store in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator, or freeze for about 3 months.
