INGREDIENTS • 1 tablespoon olive oil (if you're not using bacon) • 250 g (10.5 oz) kielbasa sausage – ADD MORE IF YOU LIKE, cut into bite-size pieces (pork or turkey kielbasa) also spelt Kolbassa, they're the same thing • 4 slices bacon (chopped into small pieces) OPTIONAL • 678 g (5 POTATOS) 4 cups Russet or Yukon potatoes, peeled and cubed • 1 medium onion (yellow or red), diced • 1 medium carrot, diced • 2 celery ribs, diced • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped minced or use a garlic press • ½ teaspoon red chili flakes - OPTIONAL • 1 tsp paprika • 1 tsp ground black pepper • 1.25 liters (5 cups) chicken stock • ¾ cup 15% cooking cream • 105 g (3.5 oz) white cheddar cheese, grated (add a bit more if you like) • Salt to taste • 2 tbsp cornstarch with 1 tbsp of the soup liquid 1. Add bacon and kielbasa to a large soup pot then turn the heat to medium. Saute until bacon is golden brown then scoop the meats onto a plate, reserving bacon grease in the pot. 2. Add carrots, celery and onion then saute until tender, 8-10 minutes – adding a splash of chicken broth then placing a lid on top to speed up the softening process if desired. Add garlic then saute until very fragrant, 1 min. 3. Add chicken broth plus Cooking cream to the pot then turn heat up medium-high to bring soup to a simmer — NOT a boil — stirring often. Add cubed potatoes then turn heat down to low-low and simmer until tender, 5-7 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together AP flour until very smooth. Mash some of the potatoes at this point will thicken the soup. 4. Add browned bacon and kielbasa back into the pot then stream in flour/milk mixture and simmer until soup has slightly thickened, 5 minutes. 5. Add ½ the amount of grated cheddar cheese, stir briskly. Now add the rest of the cheese 6. Taste then add seasoned salt to taste, and lots of pepper. 7. Add 3 tbsp Cornstarch (**stirred into 3 tbsp water to form a slurry.)
