Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 1 onion (diced)
- 1 Leek (chopped finely)
- 1 Large potato (diced)
- 2 garlic cloves (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon of mixed herbs
- 500 ml of boiling water
- 1 vegetable stock cube
- Salt and Pepper
Method
Fry the onion in oil until translucent, then add in the garlic and fry a minute more. Add in the leek, mix in, and fry for a few minutes longer so the veg sweats
Pour the water in and break the stock cube into the pot, stir in the mixed herbs
Add the potato to the pot
Simmer the soup for 20 minutes, then with a stick blender blend it well, it will turn creamy due to the starch in the potato
Season with salt and pepper
*Tip – While the soup is cooking you can add a teaspoon each of garlic powder and onion powder to add more flavor. In additional, a pinch of MSG will give even more flavor!
