JALAPENO POTATO SOUP
Fry 1 pound of bacon --drain it and break into bits.
2.5 pounds of potatoes, diced
4 celery sticks, diced
2 big onions, diced
1 can evaporated milk.
1 1/2 lb Jalapenoes, seeded and deveined
1/4 pound of Serranoes, seeded and deveined
pepper & salt,
2 tablespoons margarine
flour to thicken
Boil the diced potatoes until done, but still firm; drain. Pour in the can of evaporated milk, and add 6 cans of water. Throw in the margarine and the bacon. Turn this mix up no higher than medium to heat it so you don't scorch it.
Take half of the Jalapenos and all of the Serranos and puree them in a blender. Then toss the purree into the milk and potatoes and stir into the mix.
When the potato soup with pureed peppers in the broth is steaming and almost ready to serve, toss in the diced up Jalapenos, onions, and celery. Don't let them cook long enough to get mushy; you want these to be crisp.
Add salt and pepper to taste and add 2 to 4 tablespoons of flour to thicken.
