Step-by-step method

  1. 01

    Split the leeks and rinse between the leaves to remove grit. Slice them and the onion.

  2. 02

    Soften leeks and onion in the oil for 8 minutes over medium heat without browning.

  3. 03

    Add diced potatoes and water. Simmer for 20 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.

  4. 04

    Blend carefully following your appliance instructions. Add a little water if needed, then season.

Blend only as much as needed: overworking potato can make the texture gluey.
