Leek and Potato Soup


What I love about filling and healthy is the lack of weighing and measuring. So there are no measurements here.

Into a pan, put 2-3 chopped leeks and 3-4 chopped potatoes.  Add a stock cube and water to cover.  

Bring to the boil, turn down the heat and simmer for 20-30 mins until the veg are all soft.  Blend with a stick blender, check the seasoning and serve.

Another recipe is:
