Leek and Potato Soup in a Soup Maker

Step 1

Prepare the ingredients by peeling the onion and chopping it up, trimming the roots and tops of the leeks and finely slicing, peeling the garlic cloves and crushing and peeling and dicing the potatoes.

Step 2

Optional: add 1 tbsp. olive oil to either your soup maker (if it has a sauté function), or a saucepan. Gently sauté the onions for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the leeks and garlic and sauté for a further 2 to 3 minutes, until they start to soften.

Step 3

Switch off the sauté function/transfer ingredients to your soup maker. Add the potatoes to the soup maker.

Step 4

Add approximately 1 litre of vegetable stock (make sure you stay within the minimum and maximum guidelines on your soup maker)

Step 5

Stir the ingredients around with a wooden spoon. Set the soup maker off on the smooth setting.

Step 6

Season according to taste.
