Directions
Saute onion and celery in butter over medium heat until soft. Add the minced garlic and stir constantly for 15-20 seconds to prevent garlic from burning. Add the flour and combine well. Once flour is well incorporated, add 1 cup of the chicken broth (stirring constantly) and bring to a boil. Remove broth mixture from heat; set aside

Drain the potatoes, then return the pot of potatoes to the stove. Use a spatula to scrape all the bubbly chicken broth mixture over the potatoes. Add the milk and remaining chicken broth; bring to a boil. Season to taste with the salt and pepper. Use a flour sifter or potato masher to lightly smash the potatoes.

To serve, ladle into small bowls and sprinkle with spring onions, soy bacon bits, and shredded cheese.
