This soup is so good! I used shallots instead of leeks since that's what I had. This is a pretty quick soup once everything is peeled and diced, 30-35 min. 5 min for onions to soften, 20 min for potatoes to cook, then puree time. After the onions were soft I put the potatoes in and let them saute while I cut up the ham. YUM!
Ham Yam Soup
1 onion, finely chopped
3 leeks (white part) chopped
1 T oil
1/2 pound diced ham
2 pounds peeled, diced sweet potatoes
4 C chicken stock
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
nutmeg (optional) sprinkle
1 C milk or cream
Cook onions and leeks in oil to soften. Add ham and potatoes, toss to coat. Add chicken stock, salt & pepper & nutmeg. Cook until potatoes are sofft. Remove 2 cups of potatoes and puree (add as much stock as necessary to puree). Return puree to soup with 1 cup milk. Heat through.

You’re like a deadly blade.
Nothing can be in your path.
If something does you kill it.
Unless it’s me, dad, Dave or someone else you know.
So if you would like to you can read this poem
