    Irish Potato and Leek Soup


    Source of Recipe


    From a co-worker

    Recipe Introduction


    I'm told this is a traditional Irish soup.

    List of Ingredients




    1 lb leeks, washed thoroughly and thinly sliced
    1 lb potatoes, peeled, thinly sliced
    2 oz butter or margarine
    1 pint vegetable stock (or use canned chicken broth)
    salt and pepper
    l/2 pint light cream
    1/2 pint milk
    chopped parsley

    Recipe



    Clean leeks and potatoes. Fry leeks gently in melted fat until soft but not brown. Add stock, seasoning, bring to boil. Cover and simmer for about 12-15 minutes, or until vegetables are soft. Mash until thick and smooth. Stir in cream and milk and reheat gently without boiling. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
