leek potato soup

Creamy, comforting, flavorful potato leek soup that’s plant-based, gluten-free, and easy to make. Made in 1 pot with just 9 simple ingredients!

Creamy Vegan Potato Leek Soup

Tbsp olive oil

celery*

tsp sea salt

tsp black pepper

tsp dried thyme ((or 2 tsp fresh))

garlic, minced

water ((or sub up to

coconut milk ((or sub homemade cashew cream*))

green onion or chives

bacon

Vegan sour cream

Remove the end and dark green part of the leek and discard (or reserve greens for making vegetable broth). Slice the white and light green part of the leek in half lengthwise and clean by running cold water over each half, getting in between the leaves to remove any dirt. Then slice into 1/4-inch slices.

Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat and add the olive oil, chopped leek, and celery. Cook for about 5 minutes, until everything is slightly softened and fragrant. Add salt, pepper, thyme, and garlic. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently.

Add in the potatoes, toss to evenly combine leek mixture with the potatoes, and sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently.

Add in the water and coconut milk and bring the soup to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to a low simmer and cover for 20-25 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so. After 25 minutes your potatoes should be fork tender but still somewhat intact.

Once your potatoes are cooked, use an immersion blender to purée 3/4 of the soup, leaving some small chunks of potato. You can also put half of the soup in a high-speed heat-proof blender, blend until smooth, and add it back to the rest of the soup. We like our soup a little rustic and brothy with pieces of potato, but you can also purée it until completely smooth if preferred.

Taste and adjust as needed, adding salt for overall flavor, black pepper for kick, or more thyme for complexity.

Serve in bowls (optionally) garnished with sliced green onions or chives, coconut bacon, and vegan sour cream. Store leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or in the freezer for 1 month. Reheat on the stovetop over low-medium heat until warm.

Creamy Vegan Potato Leek Soup | Minimalist Baker Recipes

My low-cal, hearty vegan leek and potato soup is a simple, yet delicious winter warmer.

Vegan Classic Leek and Potato Soup

olive oil

onion

garlic (smashed)

leeks

potatoes

L vegetable broth

black pepper and snipped chives (to serve)

Sauté the onion in the oil until it becomes translucent, then add the garlic, and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes, until the raw garlic smell has gone.

Add the leeks and potatoes, and give everything a good stir. Cover the pan, and allow everything to sweat for 10 minutes.

Add the stock, stir again to make sure everything gets mixed together, replace the lid, and raise the heat under the pan to bring the soup to a boil.

As soon as it starts boiling, turn the heat down, and allow the soup to simmer for around 30 minutes, or until all the vegetables are soft.

When it's ready, remove the pan from the heat, and blend everything together, until smooth.

Ladle into bowls, and finish with a grind of black pepper and a few snipped chives.

This potato and leek soup will keep for up to three days in an airtight container in the fridge, or three months in the freezer.
