  2. Add half and half, and continue to simmer until it starts to thicken slightly. (About 10 min)

  5. Dish into bowl, top with some more cheese, and a sprig of parsley. Serve and enjoy :)

Potato leek soup, or potage parmentier, is a French classic. It's one of the first dishes I learned to make in culinary school, right after a proper omelet, because it's an essential base soup in French cuisine. Add watercress for potage au cresson, serve it chilled for Vichyssoise — or top it with bacon, fried leeks, fresh herbs, or. This is the kind of soup that is so simple to make yet tastes like you really know your way around the kitchen. I grew up loving this classic soup as a kid, and eating it always brings me back to a happy place.
