Steps:
- Melt the butter over medium heat in a large soup pot. Add the leeks and garlic and cook, stirring regularly, until soft and wilted, about 10 minutes. Adjust the heat as necessary so as not to brown.
- Add the potatoes, broth, bay leaves, thyme, salt and pepper to pot and bring to a boil. Cover and turn the heat down to low. Simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are very soft.
- Fish out the thyme sprig and bay leaves, then purée the soup with a hand-held immersion blender until smooth. (Alternatively, use a standard blender to purée the soup in batches; see note.) Add the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. If soup is too thin, simmer until thickened. If it's too thick, add water or stock to thin it out. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
- Note: If using a standard blender to purée the soup: be sure not to fill the jar more than halfway; leave the hole in the lid open and cover loosely with a dishtowel to allow the heat to escape; and pour blended soup into a clean pot.
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The soup can be frozen, without the cream, for up to 3 months. Defrost the soup in the refrigerator for 12 hours and then reheat it on the stovetop over medium heat until hot. Once heated through, add the cream and bring to a simmer before serving.

CREAMY RED POTATO LEEK SOUP
My family loves potato soup as one of our ultimate comfort foods, but our standard is to toss everything in a microwave-safe bowl and use uncooked potatoes with a little salt, pepper and cheese, with straight milk and butter as a base, and pop it in the microwave. It was alright, but after tasting other potato soups, I wanted to make a creamier and more "homey" version than the one we are used to. So I came up with this recipe using ingredients that we had on hand. It has a depth of flavor that is really awesome. The red potatoes I used were slightly sweet which compliments the leeks nicely, and of course bacon is the classic combo with leeks. Tips: Leeks are often notoriously lined with grit between their many layers, so slicing them lengthwise and then washing them with the root end up makes it easier. And, if you like, you can peel the potatoes completely, but the skins aren't tough and I like the little bit of color it adds.

RED POTATO AND LEEK SOUP
I made this when we were travelling in Ireland the summer of 2013, and the locals thought it was pretty tasty. Since then, it's become a family staple. On a cold rainy day it is perfect, and I serve it with a salad made with baby lettuces, drizzled with olive oil and balsamic and some crusty fresh bread chunks.
