Why This Recipe Is So Loved
Step 1
Tos the potatoes, broth, carrots, and garlic into a big pot and bring it all to a boil—this should take around 5 minutes. Once boiling, add the salt, garlic powder, and black pepper, then turn the heat down to a simmer. Cover the pot and let everything cook gently until the potatoes and carrots are nice and tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. Next, stir in the corn and ham, then lower the heat to the smallest setting so it stays warm.
Step 2
While the soup is simmering, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the cornstarch until smooth, then slowly pour in the milk, whisking constantly. Keep cooking and stirring until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble, about 3 to 5 minutes. Take it off the heat and stir in the Cheddar cheese until it melts completely.
Step 3
Pour the cheesy sauce into the soup pot and stir everything together. Let it cook over medium heat for a couple more minutes, stirring now and then, just until it’s heated through and ready to enjoy.
