This easy Potato Leek Soup will really hit the spot.

1

In a Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and minced garlic.

2

Sauté until the leeks are soft but not browned, about 10 minutes.

3

Add the chopped potatoes, fresh thyme, salt, and pepper to the pot. Pour in the stock, ensuring that the potatoes are completely covered (add more stock if necessary).

4

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Partially cover the pot and cook for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are soft.

5

Remove the pot from heat. Discard the thyme sprigs. Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Be careful not to over-blend, as this can affect the texture.

6

Stir in the heavy cream and adjust the salt and pepper according to your taste. Serve the soup warm in bowls. Garnish with chopped chives and croutons if desired.
