Do you enjoy soup?
What about Potato Leek Soup?

Happy Holidays to all Live Laugh Rowe readers!  It’s that time for my visit again. I am always happy to be here, sharing my recipes with you.  Have you had colder weather?  If so, I have a treat for you…
Today, I will be sharing something new to me. This was the first time that I made Potato Leek Soup. I tried it once at this fancy restaurant and I wanted more ever since. I decided to make it myself so I read quite a bit of different recipes out there. Finally, I came up with my own Potato Leek Soup recipe. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as we did. My husband and the little man really liked it too, so it’s family approved!  This is a perfect dish to warm up to on a cold winter day!  Enjoy!

Perfect for a Cold Day | Potato Leek Soup

Prevent your screen from going to sleep

Ingredients

  • 4-5 large Idaho potatoes peeled and chopped
  • 3-4 medium leeks only use the while and pale green parts
  • 2 tbs olive oil
  • 1/2 cup of dry white wine
  • 2-3 cups of vegetable stock enough to cover the potatoes in the pot
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 4 medium fresh sage leaves
  • salt fresh cracked black pepper
  • 2 tbs chopped green onion
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  • Directions:
  • In a medium pot, heat up the oil on medium heat.
  • Chop the leeks into small chunks and add it to the pot. Saute for about five minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add the white wine and saute for a couple of minutes.
  • Add the potatoes and vegetable stock. The stock should be enough to just cover the potatoes. Add a little more if needed. Add bay leaf, chopped sage leaves, salt and fresh cracked black pepper and stir well.
  • Cover but leave a crack for the steam to escape. Cook until the potatoes are done on medium to medium low heat.
  • Once the potatoes are done, use an immersion blender to puree about half of the potatoes. (I like soup to be a little chunky but if you don't, feel free to puree all of the soup. You can also transfer the potato leek soup into a standing blender to puree.)
  • Add the heavy cream and finely chopped green onions. Cook for another two-three minutes and serve.

    I love, love Potato Leek Soup. When I was growing up, it was tradition the first snow, Dad made Potato Leek Soup. It was divine on a cold snowy day with a nice crusty bread. Now this was the only day of the year Dad cooked…he was not a kitchen man as was most back in the early ’50’s. But I cherish the memory. While the soup was cooking he would cook some bacon till nice and crisp and garnish it with that.

    Wow..my fav soup. I really love soup and can only say the only soup I won’t eat is Split Pea, yuk! Must try your recipe.
