4 cups water
3 Yukon Gold potatoes; (approx 1 lb)
peeled and cut into 1 inch dices
1 bay leaf
3 sprigs of thyme, (

2 tsp salt
½ tsp pepper
¼ cup half and half
1 bunch – ½ cup chives, (

When the unit beeps (water is boiling) add the remaining ingredients (except half and
half and the chives) and press the stop button. Press the function button and select the
soup function.
Cook for 30 minutes or until the potatoes can be easily smashed against the side of
the pot with a wooden spoon. Remove thyme and bay leaf. Pour the soup into a food
processor and blend until very smooth.
Serve hot or chill completely in the refrigerator to serve as Vichyssoise; either way
sprinkle chopped chives on the individual bowls of soup before serving.

Meanwhile, grease the poacher/warmer with butter and add 2 eggs to each side. Insert
the handle onto the pasta/steamer insert and place the poacher/warmer on top of the
