Green Chile Potato Soup Recipe

I like this recipe because this is the kind of soup that makes me want to eat it while curled up on the couch in my favorite fuzzy socks. This cozy soup is perfect for anyone who loves the warmth and comfort of a classic potato soup with a spicy kick.

Mild or Hot Green Chiles

The beauty of this recipe is that you control the heat. I used mild green chiles which have a nice flavor that complements the creamy potato base and adds a subtle spiciness without overwhelming the soup and setting your mouth on fire.

If you’re a heat-seeker though and love to feel the burn, simply swap the mild green chiles for hot green chiles for a serious punch of heat.

If you’re not sure how much heat you want, start with a small amount of chiles and work your way up until you find the right balance for you. By experimenting with different amounts of mild or hot green chiles, you can create a soup that is perfectly spiced to your taste.

Ingredients for Green Chile Potato Soup

You will need:

  • 3 tablespoons vegan butter
  • 1/3 cup yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 4 cups vegan chicken-style broth
  • 2 cups oat milk, or other mild-flavored plant milk such as unsweetened almond
  • 1 (7-ounce) can mild green chiles, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 cups vegan cheddar cheese, shredded

How to Make Green Chile Potato Soup

STEP ONE: Into a medium-sized soup pot over medium-high heat, add the butter. When the butter is melted, add the onion. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently until softened. Add the garlic and continue cooking for an additional 30 seconds.

STEP TWO: Whisk in the flour, then add the potatoes and broth. Bring just to a boil then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Stir in the milk, chiles, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking without boiling for 3 minutes, until heated through.

STEP THREE: Add the cheddar cheese, stirring occasionally until melted. Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot.
