POTATO, LEEK, AND ROASTED GARLIC SOUP
One night I was watching Emeril and he made a garlic soup. I made the garlic soup and enjoyed it, but decided I'd rather have something else in it rather than having to put bread in the soup to make it feel like it had substance. So I took what I knew of the garlic soup and I took what I knew of leek soup and a smashed them together.

- Chop cloves of garlic and slice white and light green parts of leeks. heat a table spoon or two of olive oil in a stock pot and add chopped garlic and sliced leeks. Sauté until soft. Cut potatoes into small wedges and add to the pot. sauté for just a few seconds and salt and pepper. Cover with water. Add half of the qt of chicken stock. from here, you add water and stock to taste.
- Squeeze roasted garlic out of the head/clove pods and into the stock pot with the soup. Smash any large pieces. Bring soup to a boil.
- Turn heat down to simmer until potatoes are soft. Salt, and pepper to taste. Add any other herbs or spices at this time (thyme is always lovely with chicken stock).

[email protected]This soup was really easy to make and it turned out great. I used my immersion blender to puree it, which made it extra creamy. I also added a bit of grated Parmesan cheese, which gave it a nice savory flavor.

[email protected]This soup was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some more salt and pepper. I also think it would have been better if I had used chicken broth instead of vegetable broth.
