Potato and Onion Soup for 4

During the long, dark and cold Yorkshire winters, this soup is ideal for filling you with warmth and a smile.

1 Ib (450 g) potatoes
2 onions
2 carrots
About 1/4 pint (150 ml/2/3 cup milk)
Salt and pepper
Grated cheese
Peel the potatoes and cut into smallish pieces. Slice the onions and carrots.
Put all the vegetables into a saucepan and barely cover them with water.
Add a pinch of salt.
Bring to the boil and simmer until the vegetables are tender.
Pour off some of the water and add enough milk to make a thick lumpy soup.
Add pepper and grated cheese according to taste.
