Instructions: In a large pot, saute chopped shallots in olive oil for 3-4 minutes. Add all the chicken broth, cook on medium-high while cutting up the potatoes and asparagus. Add potatoes, asparagus, salt and pepper, simmer for 20 minutes or until potatoes are soft. Turn off heat. Add cream or whole milk, stirring it in slowly. Place in a blender and blend until smooth (about 10 seconds).

Serve with a slice of goat cheese on top or a dallop of sour cream.

Note: when I don't have cream or whole milk, I've used a little skim milk and a nice spoonful of sour cream instead.
