Potato and Leek Soup

Ingredients

• 3 leeks (white and pale green), sliced and washed
• 3 tbsp butter
• 700 g potatoes, peeled and diced
• 1 L vegetable or chicken stock
• ½ cup cream (optional)
• Salt, white pepper, chives to finish

Instructions

1. Slice the leeks and wash them well in a bowl of water to remove grit; lift out.
2. Melt the butter in a pot; sweat the leeks gently over low-medium heat until soft, 8–10 minutes, without browning.
3. Add the potatoes and stock. Simmer until the potatoes are very tender, about 20 minutes.
4. Blend until silky. Season with salt and white pepper.
5. Stir in the cream if using. Serve hot with chives (or chill for vichyssoise).
