1
Prep the Leeks
Clean the leeks thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or grit, then slice them thinly.
2
Sauté the Ingredients
In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the diced potatoes.
3
Add Broth
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
4
Blend the Soup
Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer to a blender and blend in batches.
5
Add Cream and Season
Stir in the heavy cream, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Heat through, but do not boil.
6
Garnish
Serve hot, garnished with fresh chives.
