Potato and Leek Soup

0 comments

I have not been a big soup person over the years. However, lately I have been enjoying them during these cold evenings. A small cup of soup is enough for me, although a bowl and some crusty bread is a meal for the family.  This Potato and Leek Soup is a delicious winter soup and easy weeknight meal.

I made our soup in the Thermomix this time, but have made it in the past with the regular recipe below.
