Potato Soup آلو کا سوپ with Garlic Bread Grill Cheese Sandwich recipe by morEwish

Crisp cool air, beautiful color foilage, layered clothing and a bowl of hearty warm soup!  To be more specific Potato soup with crispy garlic cheese toast. This easy potato soup is creamy and luxurious! 

I love that it’s something everyone in my family can agree on and get’s excited about when I tell them it’s what’s for dinner. I also love that I usually have all the ingredients on hand to make it. You can serve this soup brothy or thick and blended. My family love both and making them is the same except for the last step. For a thick, luxurious, and blended soup use a potato masher or immersion blender to puree or mash about half or two thurd of the potatoes in the soup to thicken it.

To make it a complete meal, I served it with cheesy garlic toast. You can serve ir with crackers or with any plain bread as well or just a garlic bread would do. But this bread is bomb, its a cheese sandwich with garlic spread and toasted to perfection
