Ingredients

1 1/2 cup raw potatoes, peeled and diced
2 cups boiling water
2 bouillon cubes
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup green pepper, finely chopped
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
pepper to taste
1 1/2 cup aged Cheddar cheese, finely grated
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped

Instructions

Bring a pot of water to a rapid boil and cook potatoes until tender, about 16 minutes. Remove potatoes with a slotted spoon and reserve cooking water.
Add bouillon cubes to hot potato water and stir until cubes are dissolved.
In a separate large saucepan melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and green pepper and cook, stirring gently for about 3 minutes until softened, but not browned. Sprinkle flour over vegetables and let bubble.
Remove from heat and add milk and potato water all at one time. Stir in salt and pepper. Return to moderate heat and cook until boiling and smooth, making sure to stir constantly to mix flour thoroughly and not permit the milk to scorch.
Turn heat to low and simmer for about 3 minutes. Add cheese and gently stir until the Cheddar is thoroughly melted. Stir in reserved potatoes and heat through, about 10 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
