Description

A creamy and comforting potato leek soup that’s easy to make and perfect for a cozy night in.


Ingredients

  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 leeks, cleaned and sliced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup coconut milk or other dairy-free cream
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh chives or parsley for garnish


Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and leeks, and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Toss in the diced potatoes and pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  3. Blend the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or by transferring it in batches to a blender.
  4. Stir in the coconut milk and season with salt and pepper. Heat gently if necessary.
  5. Serve hot, garnished with chives or parsley.

Notes

Ensure leeks are cleaned properly to avoid a gritty bite. You can swap potatoes for cauliflower for a lower-carb option.
