Potato and Leek Soup

Monday, December 14, 2009
This is the first recipe in the book Julie and Julia from Julia Child's "classic recipe". My mom stir fries leek with pork, but leek and potato is a wonderful combination! In the book, she uses some sort of potato emulsifier but I just mashed the potatoes with either a whisk or a fork. It's lumpy but I like it that way. Like Julie says, it really does only need about 3 ingredients: butter, leek, potato. 


Leek in butter

Potato

Mash..and serve!



This was not my best potato+leek soup since I only had 2 medium potatoes to one leek bundle so it turned out greener and leek-ier than I liked. Oh well!
