Ingredients:
- 5 turnips (about 2 1/2 lb), peeled , cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
- pinch of ground nutmeg
- 2 carrots , cut into matchstick-size strips
- 1 turnip, peeled , cut into matchstick-size strips
Directions:
- Melt butter in heavy large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add leeks and onion and sauté until onion is translucent, about 12 minutes. Add 5 sliced turnips and potato and sauté 2 minutes. Add 5 cups broth. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until vegetables are very tender, about 30 minutes.
- Puree soup in blender in batches until very smooth. Return to Dutch oven. Add milk and cream. Bring to simmer. Season to taste with nutmeg, salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
- Cook carrot and turnip strips in pot of boiling salted water until just crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Drain.
- Bring soup to simmer, thinning with more broth if necessary. Ladle into bowls. Garnish with carrot strips, turnip strips and chopped fresh dill.
