Ingredients

Directions

Peel potatoes and quarter them. Put in a pot of cold water with some salt and bring to a boil. Turn down to a simmer and cook until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

Clean and chop leeks. Melt the 2 tablespoons butter in a large saute pan. Add leeks and sweat until they are soft and translucent. Add chicken broth and a little salt and white pepper and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Puree all in blender and put aside.

Mash the potatoes with a masher. Add leeks, sour cream, 1/2 cup butter, and milk. Whip with an electric hand mixer. Do not over beat. Season, to taste, with salt and white pepper. Can be reheated in microwave before serving.

    it was a good alternative to regular mashed potatoes. the best part- because the recipe makes way too much- is to put them in a pan, and stock or water and buillon, puree with immersion blender- and you have a 2 minute awesome potato leek soup! better than just the mashed potatoes!

    I have never used leeks before. This was a wonderful dish and my family loved it. The only down side was a little too wet. Will be using this recipe again.
