Instructions: Directions: In a large soup pot heat the oil and butter. Saute the leeks for 3 minutes until slightly tender. Add the bell pepper and potatoes and cook for 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock, thyme and bay leaf. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook 20-30 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Remove about three quarters of the potatoes and puree in a blender with the milk. Return the mixture to the pot and add the corn and parsley. Season to taste and allow to simmer for about ten minutes more before serving.
