Leek and Potato Soup

Sorry about the awful picture, there are limits to my phone's camera, not to mention my photography skills (or lack thereof).

This soup was originally from retromummy, passed on to me by my cousin, Carmel, but I made a few slight adjustments. That's right, I'm pathologically unable to follow a recipe.

Ingredients

2 Leeks, sliced

2 Potatoes, peeled and diced

1 Onion, sliced

2 Cloves Garlic, Crushed

1 Litre Vegetable Stock

2 Cups Water

250ml Cream

Salt

Pepper

Nutmeg

You can minus the water and do the first part in the slow cooker for five hours, but I got home from work and realised that I hadn't turned it on!! So this is how I made it:

Method

Place leek, potato, onion, garlic, stock and water in a large saucepan and bring to the boil.

Simmer, stirring occasionally for about 30-45 minutes.

Use a barmix or a blender to blend the whole lot until smooth.

Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.

Stir through cream right before serving.
