Potato And Leek Soup

• 3 cups vegetable broth
• 2 cups water
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 5 leeks thinly cut up, using whole leek, including dark part
• 1 small yellow onion chopped up into squares
• 3 pounds potatoes peeled and cut into squares
• 1 scallion thinly cut up
• 1/2 clove garlic chopped up
• salt
• pepper

1. Add the broth and water to a pot and set to a medium heat.
2. Chop up the leeks and the onions into thin slices and the place it into the slightly boiling pot.
3. Peel the potatoes and cut them into squares and place them in the pot, along with the scallions and the garlic (about 20 minutes later).
4. Cover and let cook for 30 minutes.
5. Place a fork through the potatoes, if soft add heavy cream, salt, and pepper.
6. Blend together with a hand blender, where you should end up with a puree.
7. I found that my mixture was way too thick, so I ended up adding 1/2 cup more of water and a splash more of heavy cream.
8. Remove from the heat and serve in your soupy bowls.
