Steps:

  • When measuring the watercress leaves and stems, pack them down in the measuring cup.
  • Simmer leeks, potatoes, water and salt together, partially covered, 40-50 minutes until vegetables are tender.
  • Stir in watercress and simmer 5 minutes.
  • While the watercress is simmering, you can prepare the following optional garnish if you wish: a small handful of watercress leaves boiled 30 seconds, rinsed in cold water and drained.
  • Mash the vegetables in the soup with a fork, or puree in blender. Correct seasoning.
  • Off heat and just before serving, stir in cream or butter by spoonfuls. Decorate with the optional watercress leaves.

  • Melt butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened, 5–6 minutes. Add broth and potatoes; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Add watercress to pot; stir until leaves wilt. Let soup cool briefly. Working in batches, purée soup in a blender until smooth. Return soup to same pot. Stir in 1½ tsp. lemon juice. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and more lemon juice, if desired.
  • Rewarm soup gently over low heat. Divide soup among demitasse or small teacups and garnish each cup with a dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle remaining 1 1/2 Tbsp. chives over.
