Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
-
3 leeks, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
-
2 small yellow onions, thinly sliced
-
2 shallots, thinly sliced
-
4 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 teaspoon salt
-
5 cups vegetable stock, divided
-
2 large yellow potatoes, sliced
-
1 small head cauliflower, broken into small florets
-
2 carrots, sliced
-
1 cup heavy cream
-
1 pound skinless salmon fillet, cut into large chunks
-
salt and cracked black pepper to taste
-
½ (2.8 ounce) package French-fried onions, or to taste
Directions
-
Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add leeks, onions, and shallots. Add garlic and salt. Cook and stir until all is well wilted and soft, but not browned, about 3 minutes.
-
Pour 4 cups of stock into the pot; add potatoes, cauliflower, and carrots. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cook until carrots and potatoes are soft, about 20 minutes. Insert a hand blender into the soup and blend until creamy-smooth. Add more broth if too thick; the soup should be the consistency of thick bisque.
-
Stir cream into the soup; cook until heated through but not boiling. Add salmon; cook and stir until it flakes apart, 5 to 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Pour into bowls and sprinkle onions on top.
Cook's Notes:
Use up to 8 cups of stock.
You can use milk in place of cream, if you prefer.
