About this recipe
Creamy leek and potato soup is a classic, mild soup made with vegetable broth, onion, butter, and cream. Sautéing the leeks makes them sweeter and more delicate, while the potatoes give the soup a thick, filling texture. Butter deepens the flavor of the vegetable base, and cream makes the soup more velvety. This simple leek soup works well when you want something warm, home-style, and not too heavy.
Ingredients
Servings: 4
2 leeks
3 potatoes
1 onion
900 ml vegetable broth
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons cream
Steps
Rinse the leeks thoroughly between the layers and cut them into half-moons. Peel and dice the potatoes, and chop the onion.
Sauté the leeks and onion in the butter for a few minutes, until softened and milder in flavor.
Add the potatoes, pour in the broth, and cook for 15–20 minutes, until tender.
Blend the leeks and potatoes until the soup is smooth.
Stir in the cream after blending and heat the soup briefly without bringing it to a vigorous boil. Serve immediately.
