ROASTED POTATO LEEK SOUP



Roasted Potato Leek Soup image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch chunks
4 cups chopped leeks, white and light green parts, cleaned of all sand (4 leeks)
1/4 cup good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 cups baby arugula, lightly packed
1/2 cup dry white wine, plus extra for serving
6 to 7 cups chicken stock, preferably homemade
3/4 cup heavy cream
8 ounces creme fraiche
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan, plus extra for garnish
Crispy Shallots, recipe follows, optional
1 1/2 cups olive oil or vegetable oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
5 to 6 shallots, peeled and sliced into thin rings

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Combine the potatoes and leeks on a sheet pan in a single layer. Add the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss to coat the vegetables evenly. Roast for 40 to 45 minutes, turning them with a spatula a few times during cooking, until very tender. Add the arugula and toss to combine. Roast for 4 to 5 more minutes, until the arugula is wilted. Remove the pan from the oven and place over 2 burners. Stir in the wine and 1 cup of the chicken stock and cook over low heat, scraping up any crispy roasted bits sticking to the pan.
  • In batches, transfer the roasted vegetables to a food processor fitted with the steel blade, adding the pan liquid and about 5 cups of the chicken stock to make a puree. Pour the puree into a large pot or Dutch oven. Continue to puree the vegetables in batches until they're all done and combined in the large pot. Add enough of the remaining 1 to 2 cups of stock to make a thick soup. Add the cream, creme fraiche, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and check the seasonings.
  • When ready to serve, reheat the soup gently and whisk in 2 tablespoons white wine and 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Serve hot with an extra grating of Parmesan and crispy shallots, if using.
  • Heat the oil and butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat until it reaches 220 degrees F on a candy thermometer.
  • Reduce the heat to low, add the shallots, and cook for 30 to 40 minutes, until they are a rich golden brown. The temperature should stay below 260 degrees F. Stir the shallots occasionally to make sure they brown evenly. Remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon, drain well, and spread out to cool on paper towels. Once they have dried and crisped, they can be stored at room temperature, covered, for several days.

ASPARAGUS AND LEEK SOUP



Asparagus and Leek Soup image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Blender     Quick & Easy     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Asparagus     Leek     Spring     Sour Cream     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup finely chopped white and pale green part of leek, washed well
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pound asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 1/4 cups chicken broth
1/3 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • In a saucepan cook the leek and the garlic in the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until the leek is softened, add the asparagus, the broth, and 1/2 cup water, and simmer the mixture, covered, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the asparagus is very tender. Purée two thirds of the mixture in a blender until it is very smooth, stir the purée into the mixture remaining in the pan, and whisk in the sour cream and salt and pepper to taste. Cook the soup over moderately low heat until it is heated through, but do not let it boil.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will greatly impact the flavor of your soup. Look for asparagus that is bright green and firm, leeks that are white and have no yellow or brown spots, and red potatoes that are small and have a smooth, unblemished skin.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too many ingredients to the pot at once, they will not cook evenly. Add the ingredients in batches if necessary.
  • Season the soup to taste: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good starting points. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as thyme, rosemary, or paprika, to taste.
  • Serve the soup immediately: Asparagus leek and red potato soup is best served hot. You can garnish it with fresh herbs, such as chives or parsley, for an extra touch of flavor.

Conclusion:

Asparagus leek and red potato soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With its creamy texture and flavorful ingredients, this soup is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try.
