Place the leeks, potatoes, and water into a large pot. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot partially, and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until completely smooth, then adjust the seasoning with additional salt or seasoning as needed.
Chill the soup in the refrigerator. Before serving, stir in the heavy cream and adjust the seasoning one final time.
Ladle the chilled soup into bowls and garnish with fresh chives, parsley, and a dollop of crème fraîche.
