- 2 Potatoes
- 2 cups Vegetable stock
- 1/4 cup Cream
- 1 tbsp Butter

- Sweat the leeks in butter with a pinch of salt 8 minutes until silky; do not let them color.
- Add the diced potatoes and stock; simmer 15 minutes until a potato cube crushes easily.

- If too thick, thin with hot water a splash at a time.
- Serve steaming with chives snipped over the top.
