Ingrédients

  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 3 medium leeks, white and light green parts only, sliced
  • 4 slices prosciutto
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt.

  • Reduce heat and let it simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
