Potato & Leek Soup
Report
This easy potato leek soup is one of my family's favorite, the flavor of leek blended with potato's texture combined really well.

Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp butter unsalted
- 1 russet potato (peeled and chop into small pieces)
- 1 leek (cut lengthwise and chop into small pieces)
- 2 cups vegetable stock or broth
- 2 cups milk
- ½ tsp kosher salt Diamond Crystal brand
- ⅛ tsp black pepper freshly ground
- parsley (fresh, to garnish)
Instructions
- Cut the leek lengthwise and chop into small pieces. Chop the potato into small pieces.
- In a large saucepan, heat butter on medium-high heat. Add the potato and leek in the pan and sauté until they are well coated with butter and the leek gets wilted.
- Add vegetable stock. Cover with a lid and bring it to a boil over high heat. Keep simmering until the potato is soft.
- When a skewer pierces through the potato easily, turn off the heat. Pour the soup into a blender.
- Add the milk and mix.
- Pour the soup back into the saucepan. Add salt and pepper. Reheat when you serve. Do not boil the soup. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.
To Store
- You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
