Time 7h10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 good size leeks
2 ounces unsalted butter
6 medium potatoes, peeled and finely sliced
2 pints (4 cups) chicken stock or water
Salt
Black pepper, freshly ground
6 fluid ounces thick cream
Fresh chives

Steps:

  • Wash and trim the leeks and slice the white parts very finely. Melt the butter in a saucepan large enough to contain all the ingredients and stew the leeks until soft. Add the potatoes and stir to mix. Pour in the stock and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then simmer 40 minutes.
  • Allow to cool a little, then whizz the whole lot in a blender until smooth. Leave to get cold, and stir in the cream. Check the seasoning, adding some pepper. Chill thoroughly for 6 hours to overnight. Serve in nice little bowls with snipped chives sprinkled on top.

This soup was very easy to make and it turned out great! I used chicken broth instead of vegetable broth and it was still very flavorful. I also added a bit of chopped bacon to the soup and it was even better. Will definitely make this again!

I'm not a huge fan of leeks, but I decided to give this soup a try and I'm glad I did! The leeks were surprisingly mild and flavorful, and the soup was incredibly creamy and delicious. I will definitely be making this soup again!

This soup was a bit too thick for my taste. I added some more milk to thin it out and it was much better. I also think it would have been better if I had used a different type of potato, such as Yukon Gold potatoes.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I added some salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste and it was much better. I also think it would have been better if I had used Yukon Gold potatoes instead of russet potatoes.
