INSTRUCTIONS
Recipe by: St. Louis Post-Dispatch 9/29/97 In a large kettle, heat olive
oil over medium heat. Add leeks and reduce heat to low. Cook slowly for 10
to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, until leeks are
golden brown and very soft. Add potatoes, water, sugar, salt, curry,
garlic, allspice and white pepper. Bring to a boil. Cover kettle and let
simmer for
30 minutes.
Puree the vegetables using a hand-held blender or strain the liquid and
puree the solids in a blender or food processor. The soup should be velvety
smooth. Stir in evaporated skim milk and keep warm over low heat until
serving time. Soup may also be chilled and served cold.
Yield: 10 (1-cup) servings.
