1. Melt coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat and cook leek and celery until tender, 2–3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute longer. Add potato and 3 cups broth, bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, cover, and cook for 10 minutes, or until potato pieces are tender. Add asparagus and cook for 3–4 minutes more, until tender. Stir in pepper and nutmeg. 2. Transfer soup to a food processor, add basil, and purée (in batches if necessary), adding remaining 1–2 cups broth as needed to adjust consistency. Season to taste with sea salt and pepper. (For a very smooth consistency, strain soup through a fi ne sieve.) Serve hot, sprinkled with chives, if using.
