Potato, Ham and Cheese Soup

Using a medium sized stock pot, boil potatoes until desired tenderness. Reserve 1 cup of water from boiled potatoes then drain.

In a small frying pan, sauté onion in butter until tender and translucent.

Add onions, butter and flour to stock pot and stir together over low heat to make a roux (thickener).

Add potatoes, reserved liquid, milk, cheese and Ham to stock pot and simmer on medium heat 30-40 minutes stirring frequently until thickened.

Serve with cornbread or fresh baked rolls. Garnish with shredded cheese.
