Combine potatoes, onion, green onions, garlic, and broth in a heavy 3 quart saucepan.
Cover and simmer 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
Process potato mixture in batches in container of an electric blender or food processor until smooth.

Personally I prefer eating this potato soup hot, however in summer it makes a refreshing start eaten cold with a cold main course.
