Follow The Directions

01

Step

Engage the Sauté function on your multi-functional pressure cooker (like an Instant Pot). Introduce the diced onion, bacon pieces, and butter to the heated pot. Sauté until the bacon achieves a delightful crispness, approximately 5 to 8 minutes. Then, deactivate the Sauté function and transfer the flavorful mixture to a separate bowl.

02

Step

Introduce the chopped potatoes, water, and garlic base to the pot. Secure the lid, ensuring it is properly locked. Select the high-pressure setting according to the manufacturer's guidelines. Set the timer for 12 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build within the pot.

03

Step

Employ the natural-release method to release the pressure, adhering to the manufacturer's instructions, which should take about 15 minutes. Carefully release any remaining pressure using the quick-release method, which should take around 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Mash the potatoes against the pot's side, retaining some chunks for a rustic texture, if desired. Incorporate the onion-bacon mixture and half-and-half, stirring until well combined.

04

Step

Ladle the soup into bowls. Crown each serving with a generous sprinkle of green onions, shredded Cheddar cheese, and a dash of ground black pepper.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider using smoked Gouda instead of Cheddar.
Feel free to experiment with different toppings like sour cream, chives, or a drizzle of hot sauce.
If you prefer a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to blend the potatoes to your desired consistency.

    I didn't have garlic base, so I used garlic powder and it still turned out great.
