How to best prepare current in season vegetables?
Our favourite healing winter soup
POTATO & LEEK SOUP
Cook the leeks with olive oil, sauté the leeks for 10 minutes. Then add some crushed garlic and cook for another minute.
Add diced potatoes, salt, bay leaf, thyme, and vegetable stock. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Let it cook for 15 minutes until the potatoes are perfectly soft.
Blend together, but remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs beforehand. Use a blender to blend the soup until it’s to your liking.
