LEEK SOUP
Posted for Zaar World Tour 2006 from An Exaltation Of Soups....This Tranitional Welsh leek broth is a wonderful way to start a feast on March 1, St. Tavy's day. It is guaranteed to strengthen the heart cords of anyone with Welsh blood, but watch out for the celebration: in Wales, to be "full of loudmouth soup" is to be "drunk as a lord."

Steps:
- Heat the butter in a large wide pot over medium heat. Add the garlic, leeks and onion and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until soft and not browned, about 12 minutes. Raise the heat to medium-high, pour in the wine and continue to cook, uncovered, until almost dry, about 4 minutes.
- Add the potatoes, bay leaf, thyme, 7 cups water, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cook, covered, until the potatoes are very tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool slightly.
- Remove and discard the thyme and bay leaf. Working in batches, transfer the mixture to a blender and carefully puree until smooth, taking care not to fill the carafe more than half full per batch, or puree with an immersion blender in the pot. Reheat the soup over medium heat until steaming.
- Whisk in the cream and lemon juice. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper. Ladle the soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves, a drizzle of oil and a frizzled leeks or shallot if using.

Steps:
- Melt 50g butter in a heavy saucepan. When it foams, add 450g potatoes, cut into 1cm cubes, 1 small onion, cut the same as the potatoes, and 450g white parts of leeks, sliced and toss them in the butter until they are well coated.
- Season well with salt and freshly ground pepper and toss again. Put a disc of greaseproof paper (called a cartouche by chefs) on top of the vegetables to keep in the steam), then cover the pan with its lid.
- Cook over a gentle heat for 10 mins, or until the vegetables are soft but not coloured.
- Uncover the pan and discard the paper. Pour in 850ml of the light chicken or vegetable stock, bring to the boil and simmer until the vegetables are just cooked - about 5 minutes. Do not overcook or the soup will lose its fresh flavour.
- Purée in a blender until silky smooth, in batches if necessary, then taste and adjust the seasoning. Return the soup to a clean pan and stir in three quarters of a 142ml carton of whipping cream and 125ml full-fat milk.
- To finish the soup, finely shred the white part of 1 leek and gently cook it in a small knob of hot butter for a few mins until it is softened but not coloured.
- Reheat the soup to a gentle simmer (add some extra stock at this point if the soup is too thick for your liking), then pour into warmed bowls.
- Drizzle the remaining cream over each serving, top with a little pile of buttered leeks and a scattering of chives and black pepper and serve at once.

CAWL (TRADITIONAL WELSH BROTH)
The recipe that follows is one that is popular with, and derived from, the local farming community of Cardiganshire. There are regional variations throughout Wales as to what meat is used; some use Pork or Mutton we use Shin Beef. The quantities used here are based on my own requirements for two to three days, as this soup is one that improves on subsequent re-heating. Serve with lightly buttered bread and a good mature Cheddar cheese

Steps:
- Warm oven to 200C
- Slice top of the garlic bulb and place in a foil envelope. Drizzle with little olive oil and bit of salt & pepper. Close foil and place in warm oven. Cook for about 35 minutes. Once cooked set aside to cool slightly and then squeeze out the garlic from the bulbs.
- While the garlic is cooking, prepare your chicken breasts (keep whole) in an oven proof dish with little olive oil and seasoning. Cook for about 15-20 minutes depending on their size (you want them so just cooked; nice and tender with no browning). Remove from oven and let meat rest. Slice chicken or break up with fingers so the pieces of chicken are to your own preference.
- Place the two stock pots into a jug and add 900ml of boiling water. After about 5 minutes give a good stir with a fork so the stock pot has blended with the water to leave a nice vegetable stock.
- With the leeks, you want to cut off the dark green part and discard. You should be left with the white and light green part of the leek. Cut the ends and slice down the centre long ways. Keep the two halves together and then slice in the other direction. Place in a collender, break leeks up and wash.
- Lightly warm a deep wide saucepan with little olive oil and add the sliced leeks. Stir for a few minutes over a medium heat.
- Go back to your stock and give another stir. Then pour about 200-250ml of stock in with the leeks so they are just covered (this will depend on the size pan you are using). Simmer for about 5-7 minutes until leeks are soft.
- Once items are cooked accordingly, you are ready to build your soup. Place in a blender, two thirds of the leeks in stock, roasted garlic, about one third of the cooked chicken and about 500ml of stock. Blend until smooth (if needed add more stock accordingly).
- Add the blended mixture back into your saucepan with the remaining leeks and rest of the chicken. Warm through. According to your preference of thickness, add the remaining stock.
- Sqeeze the juice of half the lemon into the soup, add the tarragon (if using) and stir.
- Taste and add more seasoning according to your own preference. (Hopefully you should not require any further salt because the knorr stock pots have plenty of flavour)
- Pour into bowls and serve with warm crusty bread
