Potato Leek Soup

the best we've ever had.

  • 5 Medium Diced Potatoes
  • 3 Large Leeks
  • 4 Minced Cloves Garlic
  • 1/2 Cup Butter
  • 6 Cups Vegetable Broth
  • 1 Cup Cream
  • 1/2 tsp Thyme
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Cut off the green from the leeks & discard. Cut leeks lengthwise & wash well. Thinly slice.

Place leeks in large pot with butter & cook over medium heat until tender, but without browning them (approx 5 – 7 mins).

Add potatoes & garlic with broth. Add salt & pepper to taste.

Simmer covered for 45 mins or until potatoes are tender.

Using a hand blender, blend soup until smooth.

Add cream and simmer 3 mins.

 

Note: Some vegetable broths are already very salty, so taste soup before adding any additional salt.
