Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 large leeks
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth or more for a thinner texture
  • 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes peeled and diced into ½-inch pieces
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 sprigs of fresh thyme
  • freshly chopped chives and black pepper for garnish

Instructions

  1. Slice and clean the leeks by removing the stem and green leaves, leaving the white and light green parts, then chopping and rinsing under cold water to remove dirt.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat and sauté the leeks for 8 to 10 minutes until softened but not browned, then add garlic and stir for another minute.
  3. Add diced potatoes, salt, bay leaf, thyme, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until potatoes are fork tender.
  4. Remove bay leaf and thyme sprigs and blend the soup with an immersion blender until desired creaminess.
  5. Serve topped with freshly chopped chives and black pepper.
