Step 1

Add diced potatoes to a stock pot and cover the potatoes with 1 inch of water. Add the salt and boil gently for 10 minutes or until very fork tender. Drain, then gently mash potatoes. Set aside.

Step 2

In a separate saucepan, cook the diced onion in oil until softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add garlic and butter and cook for 1 more minute.

Step 4

Whisk in flour and cook mixture for 1 full minute. Add the chicken broth.

Step 5

Slowly add the half and half. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.

Step 6

Stir in the cooked and slightly mashed potatoes, then mix in the sour cream, and pepper.

Step 7

Remove from heat.

Step 8

Gradually sprinkle with shredded cheese and stir until combined. Make sure the base of the soup isn't too hot or the cheese won't melt creamy and smooth. The soup will continue to thicken
