Leek Soup Recipe

Ingredients:

• 4 leeks
• 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions:

1. Clean the leeks by cutting off the root end and trimming the tough dark green leaves. Slice the white and light green parts of the leeks into thin rounds.
2. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and cook until softened, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.
3. Add the chicken or vegetable broth to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and let simmer for 20 minutes.
4. Puree the soup in a blender or with an immersion blender until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste.

This leek soup is creamy, savory, and full of flavor. It’s an easy recipe that’s perfect for a cozy, comforting meal.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve hot with a crusty bread for dipping or top with croutons for added crunch. You can also garnish with fresh herbs like chives or parsley for an extra pop of color and flavor.
