Heat oven to 200C/180C Fan/gas 6. Cook the potatoes in a large pan with boiling water for 10 minutes. Place the leeks on a steamer and cover the pan. Add the peas and continue to cook the potatoes for another 10 minutes. Remove the steamer. Drain the potatoes and peas, then mash them with 12 tbsp of creme fraiche. Add the lemon juice and zest, dill, and bouillon.
