Cooking Steps
  1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, leeks, and crushed garlic. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Sprinkle in the dried thyme, rosemary, and ground coriander. Sauté for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Toss in the chopped potatoes, bay leaves, and pour in the vegetable stock. Bring the mix to a boil.
  4. Once boiling, reduce the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer until the potatoes are tender, around 20-25 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat, discard the bay leaves, and add the coconut cream. Blend using an immersion blender until smooth.
  6. Add salt and pepper to taste, and ladle into bowls. Top with freshly chopped chives for garnish.
