INSTRUCTIONS
Last night I did another soup, because I happened to have all the
ingredients handy, so here it is: Potato, Leek & Broccoli soup, and the
heat is in Calvin's chile powder!
Halve the leeks, lengthwise, and soak in a few changes of water to remove
sand, remove most of the green part, and separate the rest, then slice
crosswise and drain. Peel and chop the garlic cloves...heat the butter or
marg in a skillet or in the soup pot that you are going to do the soup in,
and sweat the leeks and the garlic, on very low, while you do the rest of
this.
Peel the potatoes, and cut into chunks, and in another pot, bring the stock
to a boil, drop in the potato chunks and cook for about ten minutes. Cut
the broccoli into flowerlets, and chop the stems, and after the ten
minutes, add to the potatoes, cook for another five to ten minutes....let
this cool a bit and put it through either a food proccessor or a large
blender in batches, until it is all smooth, and add to the leek and garlic
mix. Add the chile powder, and salt and taste for how YOU like it, then add
the milk, and re-heat, do not let it boil. This is a thick, very satisfying
soup, with a great flavour(flavor?) Enjoy....THIS IS A WELL TESTED
RECIPE!!!!! Cheers,Doug in BC
