Fennel and Leek Soup with Potatoes image

This vegetarian soup is similar to potato leek soup...but with a twist! Fennel adds another flavor to the mix, while chives and heavy cream complete the dish.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 leeks (sliced, about 4 cups; white and light green parts only)
4 cloves garlic (minced)
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 fennel bulbs (sliced; about 3 cups)
2 Yukon gold potatoes (cubed; about 4 cups)
4 cups vegetable broth
½ cup heavy cream
½ cup sliced chives

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!

A hearty pureed soup with lots of flavor. Good with hot rolls or French bread. Try to find a fennel bulb with some fronds (leaves) still attached. Trim these off and save some for garnish.
