Traditional French Soup – Cold and Moist Temperament

This delightful dish commences with the harmonious fusion of 2 tbsp of olive oil and 20ml of butter or low-fat margarine, ensuring a balanced blend of flavors. The heart of this soup lies in the tender embrace of 750g of sliced leeks, 750g of peeled and diced potatoes, and 5 carrots peeled and diced, providing a comforting and nourishing foundation. To elevate the essence, we introduce 500ml of chicken stock and 500ml of milk, infusing the dish with comforting warmth. A sprinkle of ground nutmeg, between ¼ to ½ tsp, adds a hint of aromatic splendor. To perfectly balance the flavors, season with salt and pepper to taste. Lastly, the soup embraces its richness with 125ml of reduced-fat fresh cream, ensuring a creamy delight for your palate. Garnish with freshly chopped chives, adding a touch of elegance and color to this French classic.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text][aiovg_video id=2448][/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
