Potato & All The Uns Cream Soup



Prep Time: 20 Min
Cook Time: 35 - 40 Min

Yields: 4 - 6 Servings

​ 

1. Begin melting the butter in a large sauce pot set to medium heat. Once melted, add the pepper flakes, leeks, yellow onion, shallots, green onions, and red onions. Season with sea salt and cracked pepper, stir, and cook for 7 minutes. Add the cubed potatoes, season again with salt and pepper, cover, and cook for 5 minutes.

 

1. Sprinkle in the flour and stir until everything is nicely coated and no patches of raw flour remain. Stir and cook for another 2 minutes. Slowly pour in the chickenless broth making sure to scrape the bottom of the pot for any crispy bits. Pour in the milk and cream and bring the soup to a boil. Once boiled, add the onion and garlic powders, bay leaf, white pepper, and ½ tsp. sea salt. Reduce heat to medium low, stir, cover, and simmer for 15 - 20 minutes until potatoes are tender. Taste and adjust salt / pepper if desired.

 

1. With 10 minutes remaining in the soup, heat up a small frying pan filled halfway with vegetable oil on medium heat. In a small bowl, toss together the sliced leeks, flour, and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Test the oil often by dipping a piece of the leek into the oil looking for rapid bubbling. Once heated and ready, drop a handful of the floured leeks into the oil and fry them up for about two minutes or until the rapid boiling stops. Strain to a paper towel lined plate and season with sea salt. Continue until all leeks have been fried and salted.

 

1. For service, pluck out the bay leaf and serve garnished with fresh, chopped chives, crispy leeks, and some additional pepper flakes if desired.
