For an even richer flavor, consider using chicken or vegetable broth in place of some of the milk. To ensure the potatoes cook evenly in the microwave, stir them halfway through the cooking time. If you prefer a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup after adding the potatoes. Feel free to experiment with different toppings, such as chopped chives, green onions, or a dollop of plain Greek yogurt. Ensure that the potatoes are completely tender before adding them to the soup. Undercooked potatoes will result in a grainy texture.
