Ingredients

• 5 large potatoes, diced
• 3 medium onions, diced
• 5 cups water
• 1 tablespoon parsley
• 1 stalk celery, diced
• 1 teaspoon salt
• Black pepper, to taste
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 4 to 5 tablespoons butter
• 1 (13-ounce) can evaporated milk

Procedure

1. In a slow cooker, combine potatoes, onions, water, parsley, celery, salt, pepper, chicken broth and butter.
2. Cook until done -- on low heat, 9 to 11 hours, or on high heat, 3 to 4 hours.
3. When done, add milk and reheat.
4. Serve plain or use an immersion blender/put mixture in blender for a smoother soup.
5. Reheat if necessary.

Tips, Notes, and Variations

• Garnish each serving with a dollop of sour cream and chives, if desired.
• If you don't have evaporated milk on hand, it's possible to mix 1.5 cups of cold milk with flour to form a thick slurry to mix it in with good results.
