Fry the shallots for 30 to 40 minutes? Is that right? I've never heard of deep frying for more than a few minutes. Please advise.
Sounds delicious!

I LOVE leeks! I'm so glad you posted a soup recipe using them. Since it is soup season, I make a from scratch soup every Sunday that lasts us usually until Wednesday and we have that for dinner with some salad and homemade bread. Thanks for this post, I will be making it this Sunday!

I just made this the other day and I concur with all your observations. When I saw that the shallots took 30 minutes it was sooo tempting to skip them – but the soup wouldn't have been the same. They're worth the extra effort!

Oh wow. I try to keep my soups healthy but this looks like one worth indulging in!

Wow, this is definitely going on my to make list. I'm a huge fan of potato soup since I used to work at a restaurant that had it on the menu . . . and this looks ten times better!

That is so interesting that she uses arugula! I actually have only ever made one version of potato leek soup… the first one I ever made. It is dead easy and contains like… 4 ingredients but I am sure I am losing out because of that. Great pics!

I just saw this on one of her episodes this weekend – it looked so good! And when she was making those shallots? Mmmmm…. Now that I have an actual review, I will definitely be making the soup sooner rather than later!
