INSTRUCTIONS
Place the butter and onion in a large soup kettle, set over low heat and
cook until onions have softened, about 5 t 8 minutes. Increase the heat to
medium, add the leek and stir-cook 1 minute. Add the potatoes and paprika;
stir-cook 30 seconds. Stir in the broth, thyme, herb bundle, and
Worchestershire sauce. Bring the soup base to a boil, then cover and simmer
50 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Scoop out about 1 cup of the
vegetables and mash them; then return them to the pot. Discard the herb
bundle. (The soup may be prepared in advance up to this point.) Stir in the
heavy cream, season with salt and pepper to taste, and let the soup cook
without simmering until hot throughout. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and
serve immediately.
