Ingredients

4 ½ cups Water

2 large Leeks (white and pale green parts only), halved, thinly sliced

1 ½ tsps Curry powder

2 ½ pounds Asparagus, trimmed, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 6 cups)

1 8oz container Creme fraiche or sour cream

6 Tbls Chopped fresh dill

1 Tbls Whole pink peppercorns (optional)

Directions

Bring 4 ½ cups water, sliced leeks, and ¾ teaspoon curry powder to boil in medium pot over medium-high heat. Boil 5 minutes.

Add asparagus. Reduce heat to medium; cover and simmer until asparagus is tender, about 15 minutes. Cool slightly.

Set aside 2 tablespoons creme fraiche; stir remaining creme fraiche, 4 tablespoons chopped dill, and 3/4 teaspoon curry powder into soup. Puree in batches in blender until smooth.

Strain soup into large bowl. Season soup to taste with salt and pepper.

Refrigerate until cold, about 4 hours, or up to 1 day.

Divide chilled asparagus bisque among 6 bowls. Top each with 1 teaspoon crème fraîche.

Sprinkle with remaining chopped fresh dill and whole pink peppercorns, if desired.
