Cooking Steps
You can prepare some elements in advance. See the 'mise en place' information on the front of the recipe card.
- Preheat the oven to 200°C. Prepare the stock.
- Peel and smash the garlic. Chop the onion and slice the leek into thin rings.
- Melt the butter in a soup pot over medium-high heat and fry the onion, garlic and leek for 5 - 6 minutes.
- Peel and dice the potato, then transfer it to the soup pot.
- Add the mustard, stock and cream, then bring to a boil and cover with the lid. Allow to simmer for 7 - 8 minutes.
- Slice the bread and transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Top with three quarters of the Gruyère and then bake in the oven for 6 - 8 minutes.
- Finely chop the herbs and set aside a third of the chives to use later as garnish.
- Transfer the rest of the herbs to a small bowl. Add the extra virgin olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper, then mix well to combine.
- Meanwhile, heat a clean frying pan over high heat and toast the pumpkin seeds until they start to pop. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add the white wine vinegar to the soup, then use an immersion blender to process until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Serve the soup in bowls and top with the herb oil, the toasted pumpkin seeds and the rest of the Gruyère.
- Serve the crostini alongside and garnish with the reserved chives.
