This soup is perfect for freezing. Make it in advance and keep in on hand for unexpected guests.

Melt the butter in a large stew pot.
Add the leek and potato. Stir until coated with butter
Cover and cook over low heat for 10 min, stirring occasionally
Dissolve stock cubes in boiling water and add to pot
Cut the tips off of 1/3 of the asparagus spears and set the tips aside
Add all the asparagus spears, including ones without tips, to the pan.
Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes
Puree the soup with a hand blender
Add 2/3 of the cream and the asparagus tips
Reheat, but do not allow to boil
Serve with a swirl of the remaining cream and sprinkle with t a few of the roasted pine nuts

Leek and potato soup - cold OR hot - is one of my husband's and my favorites. Now how can you go wrong with adding asparagus?! I'd give this two 5's if I could. Mmmmm.
