Cooking Instructions

Fry the sliced onion and celery in a large, deep pan with a knob of butter and a good glug of olive oil, until the onion is starting to soften.

Add the leeks and potato, pour in the stock, cover the pan with the lid and simmer on a low heat for about 25-30 minutes until everything is very soft. Puree the soup with a stick blender or in a food processor until smooth, adding a little boiled water to thin if necessary. Add salt and black pepper to taste.

To make the crispy onions, heat some light olive oil or vegetable oil in a large frying pan and add the sliced onion, fry, stirring, until just starting to brown and crisp up. Add the spices and salt and pepper, and fry for another minute or two, then add a knob of butter and stir it in as it melts. Remove from the heat.

Leek and potato lumpy soup Leek and potato lumpy soup
I'm not the best at cooking so everything I make is easy and beyond tasty! Never made a leek and potato soup before and I mashed several recipes together. Some say add onion. I hate onion so I didn't add it. But you can add a cup in if you want. Same with pepper (add to taste) and maybe try some cheese grated in? Make it your own and don't worry as long as you have leeks and potatoes...it's a soup...
