| 2 | tablespoons | butter | or margarine |
| 1/2 | cup | onion | chopped |
| 1 1/2 | cups | leeks | cleaned, chopped |
| 1 | teaspoon | garlic | minced |
| 1 | quart | chicken broth | |
| 13 3/4 | ounces | artichoke hearts | well rinsed, drained, quartered |
| 2 1/2 | cups | potatoes | peeled, cubed |
| 2 | small | thyme sprigs | |
| 1 1/2 | cups | milk | |

| 1 | x | salt | to taste |
| 1 | x | black pepper | ground, to taste |

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and sauté the onion and leeks, covered, for about 10 minutes, or until tender.
Uncover and cook until the leeks are very soft, about 5 minutes, adding the garlic for the last minute.
Add the broth, artichokes, potatoes and thyme; simmer for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Add the milk and Tabasco sauce; simmer for 5 minutes longer.
Remove from heat and discard the thyme.
In a food processor or blender, puree the soup until very smooth.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Serve hot or cold, garnished with parsley.
