FENNEL AND LEEK SOUP WITH POTATOES
Steps:
- Warm the olive oil in a soup pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the leeks and cook for about 5 minutes until tender. Stir in the garlic, salt, and pepper, and cook for an additional minute.
- Add the fennel, potatoes, and vegetable broth to the pot. Increase the heat to bring to a boil, then reduce heat to maintain a simmer. Cover and cook for 20 to 25 minutes until the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Remove the soup from heat. Use an immersion (handheld) blender to puree the soup right in the pot. See notes for instructions on using an upright blender.
- Stir most of the heavy cream into the soup, reserving a few tablespoons to drizzle on each bowl of soup.
- Ladle the soup into bowls, top with a drizzle of cream, and sprinkle with chopped chives. If your fennel bulbs came with their fronds, feel free to use those as a topping too. Enjoy!
