This soup is deceptively easy for the flavour it packs.

Prep Time10 minsCook Time30 minsTotal Time40 mins
 1 large leek, thinly sliced
 1 tbsp butter
 4 average sized potatoes, peeled and chopped
 3 cups vegetable broth
 salt and pepper to taste
1

In a pot over medium heat, saute the leek in the butter for 10 minutes or until soft.

2

Add the potatoes and vegetable broth, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook 20 - 30 minutes or until tender.

3

Puree in the pot with a hand blender or transfer to a blender. Season with salt and pepper

4

Tips: I usually peel the potatoes while the leeks are cooking. If you haven't pre-made the broth, you can put the water and the broth powder in the pot at the same time.
