Potato Leek Soup (Vegan)

February 6, 2019 by Helena Leave a Comment

The classic potato leek soup (vegan) is creamy but without the cream!

This makes for a healthier version but with all the good flavors. This is a perfect winter soup for me or one of those soups that I make when there is not much in the house and I don’t feel like running out to the store. I can usually find a few potatoes, leek, shallots and vegetable stock. That is pretty much all you need for this soup.

Easy, peasy, delicious and budget friendly!

Potato Leek Soup (Vegan)

  • Leeks rinsed and chopped
  • Shallots, chopped
  • Olive oil
  • Potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • Vegetable stock 
  • Salt and pepper
  • For serving, vegan cream and some chopped leeks or chives 

Instructions:

Heat the oil in a large soup pot and sauté the leeks and shallots until soft, stirring often.

Add the stock and potatoes to the pot and bring to a simmer. Cook until the potatoes are soft and cooked through.

Take the soup off the heat and mix until smooth using a hand held blender. If the soup is to thick add a little water. Salt and pepper to taste. Top with cream, leeks or chives if desired. Enjoy!
