You can omit the flour in the dish and in this case, add more potatoes, which you can slightly mash towards the end of cooking. The one-pot dish can be blended with a hand mixer to create an excellent creamy soup. The dish is suitable for both young children and older adults, as it does not burden the digestive system.
