Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter 1 pound prepared sliced leeks (2 cups) 1 pound parsnips, trimmed, peeled, and cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces 2 apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 1-inch pieces 1 medium baking potato (about 1/2 pound), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces 1 can (14.5 ounces) reduced sodium chicken broth 1/2 cup heavy cream Salt and pepper Leek garnish (see below)

Directions

Heat butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add leeks (reserving 1/2 cup for garnish). Cook, stirring, 5 minutes.

Add parsnips, apples, potato, broth, and 4 cups water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, until vegetables are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.

Working in batches, puree soup in a blender until smooth. Return it to pot; stir in cream. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with Leek Garnish.

To make leek garnish, in a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high. Add reserved 1/2 cup leeks; cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 3 minutes.

Cook’s Notes To prepare leeks: Trim and discard root ends and dark-green parts. Halve lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise. Wash in several changes of cold water until all grit is removed.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       12/08/2013   Delish! Used veggie stock instead of chicken, left out the cream, and skipped the puree part but still so flavorful. First time cooking with parsnips and I'm a fan!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/09/2013   very fast and nice not to creamy consistency, would make it again if I had parsnips and apples around, I forgot to add in the potato though it still tuned out yummy  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       05/14/2012   Delicious! I chopped the veggies extra fine and skipped the puree step. Happened on a good deal on parsnips & leeks, happened to have the other ingredients on hand. Would absolutey make again.
