Steps:
- Peel and chop the potatoes into cubes. Finely chop the garlic, the cleaned leeks and the celery.
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan, add the vegetables and gently cook about 10 minutes or so until the butter is absorbed, but don't allow to brown.
- Add 3/4 of the stock and simmer until the potatoes are soft, about 15 minutes.
- Puree the soup in two batches in a blender and add the balance of the stock.
- To serve, mix the croutons, scallions and parsley together and mound a large spoonful on top of each bowl.
