Soup to Soothe Sam.
This would have to be my favourite soup. Served with sourdough bread coated in butter, this French classic does not disappoint.
It is Delish!
Recipe for Potato and Leek Soup, AKA Vichyssoise:
2 good size leeks
6 decent pontiac potatoes (waxy variety)
Thyme
Peel your potatoes and chop into chunky dice.
Slice your leeks and put both ingredients into a decent pot.
the ratio of Potato to Leek should be about the same. Adjust accordingly
Pop some thyme in, ad fill with enough water so that the veg is submerged only just.
Cook for 45 mins on low heat, somewhat covered.
Mount with butter (50 grams or so)and season with salt and cracked pepper.
Either serve as is or blend.
Serve hot with nice GOOD bread. Sourdough is recommended or a nice Rye.
Oh La La C'est Marveilleux!!!!
