- This is a rather rustic soup. For a more refined version, pass it through a food mill before serving.
- Heat THE BUTTER IN A SOUP POT and add in 1/2 c. water. Add in the leeks, sorrel and salt, then cook gently, covered, for 5 min over medium-low heat.
- Add in the potatoes and cook another 10 min, stirring occasionally, then pour in the rest of the water and gradually bring the soup to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer till the potatoes are tender, about 30 min. Once the potatoes are soft, help break them down by pressing them against the side of the pan, making the soup as rough or possibly smooth as you like. Or possibly, if you prefer, pass the soup through a food mill. Taste the soup for salt and add in more, if necessary. Serve with freshly grnd pepper, a spoonful of creme fraiche swirled in and a delicate sprinkling of chives over the top. If you've got garden chives and they're in bloom, separate the individual flowers at the base and sprinkle on a few along with the green stems.
