Notes

Top Tips:
  • Before you start preparing your leek and potato soup, you need to ensure that your vegetables are clean and free of dirt. Begin by washing your leeks thoroughly under running water, making sure to remove any dirt or grit between the layers. Next, peel your potatoes using a vegetable peeler and rinse them under cold water.
  • Cut the vegetables into similar-sized pieces to ensure the soup is smooth and silky.
  • It's important to not exceed the maximum fill line of the soup maker as this can cause the soup to overflow during cooking.
  • If your soup maker has a sauté function, use it to cook the vegetables until they are soft. This step releases their natural sweetness, providing a depth of flavour to the soup.
  • Don’t forget to season your soup. Salt and pepper are essentials, but you can also consider adding herbs like thyme or a bay leaf for extra flavour.
