Instructions: Preheat oven to 400F 200C. In a baking dish, toss carrots, leeks, and garlic with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. Transfer roasted vegetables to a food processor or blender. Add butter or ghee and heavy cream, if using. Blend until smooth and creamy. If needed, adjust consistency with more cream or a splash of water. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
