CREAM OF LEEK AND POTATO SOUP
Steps:
- In a large heavy saucepan, bring the leeks, potatoes, water, and salt to the boil over high heat. Cover partially, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Correct the seasoning, to taste, and puree with a handheld immersion blender, or in batches in a food processor.
- Whisk in the cream and reheat before serving. Top each serving with a dollop of creme fraiche and sprinkling of fresh chives.

One of the most comforting of all comfort foods is potato soup. And this is the recipe that I have used for years and years. So yummy and warm.

Steps:
- If you want to use the optional bacon, start by frying the bacon bits in a large stockpot until crisp. Remove bacon bits and reserve. (If there is more than a few tablespoons of bacon grease, drain some off.) Saute the leeks and celery in the bacon grease until soft and translucent. If you prefer to make the soup without bacon, simply saute the vegetables in a combination of butter and oil (about 2 Tbsp each) until soft.
- Add the cubed potatoes, broth and just enough water to cover the potatoes. (Sometimes I add a tiny bit of turmeric, a couple of pinches or so, to the pot to enhance the buttery golden color) Bring to a boil and then turn to medium and cook until potatoes are tender. Partially mash some of the potatoes and set the pot aside to make the roux in the microwave.
- In a small microwaveable bowl, melt the butter and stir in the flour. Microwave for another minute, stirring half way through to cook out the raw taste.
- Add the milk to the stockpot and heat through. Stir in the roux vigorously and bring back to a low boil to thicken. Add the cream and stir. If the soup is too thin, you can either make a little more roux, or add some instant potato flakes or mash the potato chunks a little more to thicken. If too thick, add some more milk or even chicken broth.
- Let the soup simmer on very low temp, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking or burning, for 10 to 15 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Because the bacon and the chicken broth both have salt, you will need to determine how much to add for your preference. I use quite a bit because the potatoes really take up a lot of salt.
- Return the bacon to the stockpot or use it as a garnish on bowls of the soup. You can also garnish with some fresh chopped chives or some green onion tops finely chopped, or the ultimate in decadence, with a little dab of butter that melts in the center of the bowl.

RED POTATO AND LEEK SOUP
I made this when we were travelling in Ireland the summer of 2013, and the locals thought it was pretty tasty. Since then, it's become a family staple. On a cold rainy day it is perfect, and I serve it with a salad made with baby lettuces, drizzled with olive oil and balsamic and some crusty fresh bread chunks.

PAM'S POTATO SOUP
Steps:
- Chop onion up finely and put in large pan. Add stick of butter and turn the pan on simmer. Let butter slowly melt and the onions are sweetened and softened by the slow basting of butter.
- Peel the potatoes and chop up. I like to vary the size of the cubed potatoes so that some potatoes sort of dissolve while other potatoes stay in chunks. Add potatoes to onion and butter in pan. Add chicken broth and cream of chicken soup. Finish filling the pan to just above the potatoes with water. Salt and pepper the potatoes.
- Cook potatoes on medium heat for about 30 minutes or until potatoes are softened. Add can of carnation milk and the Velveeta Cheese. Stir until Velveeta Cheese is melted.

Steps:
- Melt 50g butter in a heavy saucepan. When it foams, add 450g potatoes, cut into 1cm cubes, 1 small onion, cut the same as the potatoes, and 450g white parts of leeks, sliced and toss them in the butter until they are well coated.
- Season well with salt and freshly ground pepper and toss again. Put a disc of greaseproof paper (called a cartouche by chefs) on top of the vegetables to keep in the steam), then cover the pan with its lid.
- Cook over a gentle heat for 10 mins, or until the vegetables are soft but not coloured.
- Uncover the pan and discard the paper. Pour in 850ml of the light chicken or vegetable stock, bring to the boil and simmer until the vegetables are just cooked - about 5 minutes. Do not overcook or the soup will lose its fresh flavour.
- Purée in a blender until silky smooth, in batches if necessary, then taste and adjust the seasoning. Return the soup to a clean pan and stir in three quarters of a 142ml carton of whipping cream and 125ml full-fat milk.
- To finish the soup, finely shred the white part of 1 leek and gently cook it in a small knob of hot butter for a few mins until it is softened but not coloured.
- Reheat the soup to a gentle simmer (add some extra stock at this point if the soup is too thick for your liking), then pour into warmed bowls.
- Drizzle the remaining cream over each serving, top with a little pile of buttered leeks and a scattering of chives and black pepper and serve at once.

- Melt the butter over medium heat in a large soup pot. Add the leeks and garlic and cook, stirring regularly, until soft and wilted, about 10 minutes. Adjust the heat as necessary so as not to brown.
- Add the potatoes, broth, bay leaves, thyme, salt and pepper to pot and bring to a boil. Cover and turn the heat down to low. Simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are very soft.
- Fish out the thyme sprig and bay leaves, then purée the soup with a hand-held immersion blender until smooth. (Alternatively, use a standard blender to purée the soup in batches; see note.) Add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. If soup is too thin, simmer until thickened. If it's too thick, add water or stock to thin it out. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
- Note: If using a standard blender to purée the soup: be sure not to fill the jar more than halfway; leave the hole in the lid open and cover loosely with a dishtowel to allow the heat to escape; and pour blended soup into a clean pot.
