Wash, peel, and chop the potato into 1-inch pieces.

Dice your onion, mince your garlic, and gently chop your chives.

Next, place a large stockpot over medium heat and add the butter.

Once the butter is melted, add in the onion, garlic, and leeks and cook for about 5 minutes or until softened.
-
Add in the salt, pepper, potatoes, and cayenne pepper and stir together until combined.

Cover the pot with a lid and let cook for 5 minutes so the potatoes can begin to soften.

Using an immersion blender or a standard blender, blend the cooked soup mixture until smooth. Return the mixture to the pot if you use a blender.

Place the soup over low heat and slowly whisk in the cream. Cook for 3 minutes until the cream is incorporated and the soup is smooth.
