Great soup for cold wetter days. Creamy, rich and full of taste.

preparing:
- Peel the potatoes, cut into equal sized cubes and wash under running water.
- Then put them in a saucepan with the bay leaf, crushed cumin seeds, 3 black peppercorns and 2 peeled garlic cloves (whole).
- Pour water over everything so that it is ca. 2 cm above the edge of the potatoes. Then add salt and let cook, covered, on a low heat for 15min.
- To thicken, combine 100ml sweet cooking cream, milk, flour, potato starch in a bowl and stir everything together until the lumps disappear.
- Pour the mixture through a sieve to the potatoes and stir. Let it boil for a short time, then turn off the heat.
