 Ingredients for Potato Soup Chowder

• 6 potatoes, cut into cubes (or more as needed)

• 2 ½ cups chicken stock

• 1 cup diced onion

• 1 cup chopped carrots

• 1 cup chopped celery

• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

• Salt and pepper to taste

• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

• 1 (15.25-ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained

• 1 cup cooked turkey ham, cut into 1/4-inch cubes

• 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

Step-by-Step Directions

Step 1: Prepare Ingredients in the Pressure Cooker

In a multi-functional pressure cooker, combine potatoes, chicken stock, onion, carrots, celery, flour, salt, and black pepper. Close and lock the lid, selecting the high-pressure setting. Set the timer for 10 minutes and allow 10-15 minutes for the pressure to build.

Step 2: Release Pressure and Add Ingredients

Follow the manufacturer’s quick-release method to safely release the pressure (about 5 minutes). Unlock the lid and stir in the corn and turkey ham.

Step 3: Add Cheese and Final Touches

Stir in the shredded Cheddar cheese until fully melted and combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy

Serve the soup hot, garnished with crispy bacon bits, chopped green onions, or croutons. Pair with warm cornbread or a crusty baguette.

Cooking Tips:

• For a creamier texture, dice potatoes into smaller pieces.
• Substitute chicken stock with bouillon, chicken soup base, or milk for a different flavor profile.
• Swap shredded Cheddar for processed cheese food (e.g., Velveeta) or your preferred cheese.
• Replace flour with a packet of country gravy mix for a richer flavor.
• If the potatoes are not cooked to your preference, use the High/Soup setting (not pressure) for a few more minutes.
