Ingredients

1 lb. of fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut in one inch pieces

3 fairly large leeks, washed well and sliced in rounds, white and pale green part only

3 cups of sliced mushrooms (I mix crimini and white button)

6 tablespoons of butter

1/4 cup of flour

1/2 tsp of salt

1/4 tsp of pepper

1/8 tsp of fresh ground nutmeg

1 can of whole kernel corn

2 cups of low fat chicken broth

2 cups of cream

tbsp of chopped green onions for garnish

Directions

In a large saucepan, saute the asparagus, mushrooms and leeks in butter for 10 minutes until they are tender and wilted.

Stir in flour and salt and pepper with a few grinds of fresh nutmeg.

Gradually stir in the broth and cream.

Bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and cook until thickened.

Stir in corn, heat gently for another 3 minutes or so.

Serve sprinkled with green onions on top.

Great recipe, though very high in fat (I used some butter and cream substitutes). I came on the site today, looking for a way to use up some fresh leeks. Found this recipe, and decided to try it because it sounded so yummy, I had all the ingredients, and it seemed perfect for a grey and rainy day like today. I was surprised to discover, when I tried to save the recipe, that I already had it--from who knows how long ago. I guess it was meant to be one of my favorites. Thanks!

Hi! Just spotted this recipe - I'm saving this for autumn - I love all these ingredients and I can easily substitute non-dairy versions of the butter, etc. Smashing! Thanks
Hope you are well.
