Ingredients

4 small red new potatoes, scrubbed and cut in quarters

6 cups chicken stock (use water if no stock on hand)

4 tbsp butter

2 medium yellow onions, peeled, sliced

1 bunch scallions, trimmed, sliced

3 small leeks, trimmed, sliced (be sure to wash thoroughly!)

4 spring onions, peeled, sliced

3 cloves garlic, peeled, sliced

2 cups half-and-half

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Chopped chives

Directions

Place potatoes and chicken stock in a large pot.

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Reduce heat to medium and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.

While the potatoes are cooking, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.

Throw in all the onions and the garlic and cook about 15 minutes, or until the onions are soft.

Be sure to stir the onions frequently so that they cook evenly without burning.

Transfer the onions to the pot containing the potatoes and stock once the potatoes are tender.

Simmer for 5-10 more minutes, then remove from heat.

Dump the contents of the pot in a blender (do it batchwise if your blender won't hold all of the mixture at once) and purée.

Return the puréed soup to the pot and add the half-and-half.

Season to taste with salt and pepper; serve it forth in bowls and garnish with the chopped chives.

Wonderful. I love all the varieties of onions together. They each add a subtle difference and sum is greater than the parts. Love this.

Made this for the family the other night. Very yummy. This soup would make a good base for other soups too. It was quite a bit like a potato leek that I like to make. I was making extra for my parents to take and tripled the batch, that was a lot of soup! I might add more potatoes if I was looking for something with more substance. Thanks for the recipe!
