Equipment
- chopping board
- large kitchen knife
- Vegetable peeler
- large soup pan
Ingredients
- 25 g butter
- 1 large onion (chopped)
- 1 large leek (chopped)
- 1 kg floury potatoes (peeled and diced)
- 3 large carrots (peeled and diced)
- ½ swede (skin removed and diced)
- 1.5 ltr vegetable or chicken stock
- sea salt and black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Place a large soup pan over medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter has melted add the onion and leek and sauté gently for 5-10 minutes, while you get on with preparing the remaining vegetables.
- Add the vegetables and all of the stock to the soup pan, season with salt and pepper, give it a stir and bring to a boil. Then turn the heat down medium-low and simmer for 30-35 minutes until the vegetables have softened.
- At this stage you can leave the vegetables whole, or break them down a little using a potato masher. Try to leave some of the potato chunkier to give the soup a little more texture.
- Now check the soup for seasoning and add more salt or pepper if needed, before serving.
Notes
Soup is a great make ahead dish and actually tastes better when it has had time to sit as all the flavours meld together. Just cover the soup, cool down and store in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
This soup can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days, or in the freezer for 3-4 months.
