Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup finely chopped white and pale green part of leek, washed well

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pound asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 1/4 cups chicken broth

Purée two thirds of the mixture in a blender until it is very smooth, stir the purée into the mixture remaining in the pan, and whisk in the sour cream and salt and pepper to taste.
