Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 leek, trimmed and diced
  • 4 potatoes, peeled and diced (I make it with unpeeled, personally!)
  • 4 tart apples, peeled and diced
  • 10 cups chicken stock
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 tart apples, peeled, cored and diced
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup chopped chives

Directions
  1. In a large pot, melt 1 tablespoon butter over high heat.
  2. Add diced onion and leek, cooking until translucent, about 15 minutes.
  3. Add the potatoes, all but 2 cups of the diced apples and chicken stock.
  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Bring to a simmer and cook until tender, about 45 minutes.
  6. Pour soup into a colander over a pot to separate the vegetables from the stock (cooking liquids).
  7. Ladle the vegetables into a blender or food processor. Add enough stock to cover; puree until smooth.
  8. Pour into a fine sieve and strain into another pot.
  9. Add more stock if the soup is too thick.
  10. Add lemon juice; season with salt and pepper to taste.
  11. In a medium nonstick pan, heat the remaining butter over high heat.
  12. Add remaining apples, cooking until slightly brown.
  13. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar over apples and continue cooking until golden.
  14. Add vinegar and remove from heat.
  15. Ladle the hot soup into a tureen or serving bowl.
  16. Spoon the diced apple garnish into the center of the soup.
  17. Garnish the top of the soup with chives.
  18. ENJOY! :+D
