Why I Love This Recipe

The pepper adds an unexpected but pleasant heat, the rosemary an unexpected perfume, and the sour cream smooths it all out.

1/3c +/- Olive oil

3-4 leeks, sliced
3-4 cloves garlic, crushed

1/2tsp black pepper, divided
1/4tsp red pepper
1/4tsp wht pepper
1/2tsp rosemary, crushed
3-4c chicken stock
3-4c milk
3-5tblsp butter
1/3-1/2c sour cream


Directions

Heat the oil on the stove over a med flame in a heavy stock pot or dutch oven, and add the potatoes and half the salt and pepper.


Sauté 10min or so, turning frequently to prevent much crisping and browning, til nearly done; add leeks, garlic, spices and rest of the salt & pepper.
