Potato Soup with Mushrooms and Leeks Recipe (+)

Directions

To clean leeks, place the chopped leeks in a bowl with water and stir them around. They are grown in sandy soil, so the sand will settle to the bottom.
In a large skillet, melt half the butter over medium heat. SautÃ© mushrooms until lightly browed, about 5 minutes.
In a stock pot, melt half the butter over medium heat. Add leeks and carrots. Cook for 5 minutes or until vegetables start to soften. Pour in broth, seasonings, potatoes and mushrooms. Cover and simmer 20-30 minutes. Discard bay leaf.
Combine the milk and flour and whisk until smooth. Stir into the soup to thicken. Serve once heated through.
