I'm not a big fan of leeks, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The sour cream helped to balance out the flavor of the leeks.

The mashed potatoes were a bit too runny for my liking. I think I'll try using less milk next time.

These mashed potatoes were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasoning next time.
