- In a saucepan over a medium heat, melt the butter then add the onion and leeks and cook until soft but not browned. Add the potatoes and toss to coat in butter. Add the stock and simmer for 8 to 12 minutes until the potatoes are soft. Season and add the creme fraiche. Blend until smooth using a hand held liquidiser. Pour into warm bowls and drizzle a little double cream into each bowl. Serve immediately.
