INSTRUCTIONS
Drop the thinly sliced leeks (tender green parts as well as white) into 1/2-inch fast-boiling salted water. Cook until very tender. Save the cooking liquor. Whizz the leeks to a smooth, pale green puree. Season, enrich with knobs of butter and thin with a little of the cooking liquor if liked. Serve garnished with a bouquet of green coriander and triangles of fried bread. Add some soft-boiled eggs for a quick vegetarian supper.

A Message from our Provider:
“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
