Chunky leek and potato soup...

I picked up some leeks the other day - reduced to 45p for three.  I used up two of them today making chunky leek and potato soup, along with some Maris Piper potatoes - currently on offer in Aldi as part of their "Super 6" - 2.5kg for 69p.  This soup is so easy to make - here's how I did it!


Firstly I prepared the vegetables; I chopped up an onion, two leeks and a few potatoes and gave them a rinse.


I then added the vegetables to a large pan along with a knob of butter and some salt and pepper.  I popped the lid on and left the vegetables to sweat over a very low heat for about half an hour.


Then I added two beef stock cubes and water.  I brought the soup to the boil and simmered for another half an hour.


Three tubs of soup for the freezer and a bowl of soup for me for lunch!


Simple to make, tasty, cheap and filling!

Best Wishes
Debbie
