Thank you Suzanne and Obbie for your kind words.
I have been sick lately and this recipe has been an easy, kids-will-ask-for thirds recipe!

Number of People: 4 adults
Ingredients:

Ingredients:
4 potatoes washed, peeled, cubed
1 leek, white part only. Cut lengthways, rinsed and soaked in water to remove grit. Then roughly chopped
500g water
2 cloves garlic
1/2 small onion quartered
25g  unsalted butter
1 tblspn vegie stock OR 1 tspn vegie stock and 1 tspn chicken stock powder
2 tblspn cream or more depending on taste
Pepper to taste

Preparation:

Add garlic, leek and onion into TM. Chop speed 5 for 5 sec
Add butter to TM and cook 6 min/varoma/speed 1, make sure MC is OFF
Add potatoes, water, stock and cook 25 min/100deg/speed 1, make sure MC is OFF
Add Cream to taste, and blend for 10 sec going slowly from speed 1 to speed 7 to avoid excessive splashing.

Yummy with croutons or crispy bacon bits sprinkled on top and some crusty bread on the side!

djinni373 - A teaspoon of stock concentrate is more than enough for us and I threw in some fresh parsley at the end. Yummy with toasted home made ciabatta. Quick and easy too.

thermo18 - such a lovely flavour and will be making again.

LouLouB - Has a great taste. Mine was like potato puree at first,  so think my 4 potatoes may have been too big, but nothing that some extra cream & a dash of milk couldn't sort out. Tasty!

Sparky606 -  We (DH and I) think it could do with more leek. Ours fed 2 adults but probably wouldn't have fed much more.
Was still very yummy and definitely recommended.

floweryspring - Used 2 leeks. 2 big and 1 small potato but was still too thick so I added some hot water and more cream. DELICIOUS!

Thank you again ladies!
 I let Hubby have full reign of the kitchen and      on the weekends as he is a bit of a "foodie" and loves to cook on his days off. Hey I get fed so I am not complaining! 
He has just made a lemon/orange souffle with the Thermomix and it rose really, really well in the oven, but alas, it kind of collapsed when he took it out.  He was devastated! It tasted pretty good though. 
Just wondering if anyone has a special trick to keep the souffles up when taken out of the oven?

Thank you so much ladies for your warm welcome and kind words.
Yes, I was very lucky my Hubby was willing to buy the Thermomix. Truth be told, he was the one who encouraged me to buy it so he could have a go at it himself! We have only had the Thermomix for 3 weeks, and I think he has used it more than me. his favourite recipe has been the lemon/lime sorbet, even though it is freezing here in Sydney!
He just loves gadgets, and to him the Thermomix is the ultimate gadget ... aside from his trusty Weber bbq that is.
