2 tb Onion

finely chopped
1 lg Leek :

rinsed well;
-sliced (about 1 cup) 2 c -double-strength

Melt butter in a heavy saucepan. Add onion and leek and cook slowly; stirring often, until soft. Stir in broth, then add potato. Cover and cook until potato is tender. Cool, then process in a food processor or blender until pureed. In another saucepan, bring cream to a gentle simmer, cook until just slightly reduced, then stir in leek mixture and heat until very hot (but don't boil). Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Serve hot. Sprinkle 1 Tbl. cheese over each serving and offer a shot of the wine on the side. Hope you enjoy this as much as we did. Slurp, slurp.
