Leek and Sweet Potato Soup

 

Description:

A warming,  sweet twist to the classic leek and potato soup.
 
 
Ingredients:

2 tbsp olive oil
2 large leeks, roughly chopped
1 onion, roughly chopped
1 carrot, roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, roughly chopped
600g sweet potato, peeled and chopped into chunks
1.2 litres gluten-free vegetable stock or bouillon
salt and freshly ground black pepper

 

 
Preparation:

Heat the oil in a large saucepan, add the leeks, onion, carrot, garlic and sweet potato.

Fry gently for about 5 minutes until the leek and onion soften.

Add the stock or bouillon, bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.

Purée the soup in a food processor or with a hand-held blender.

Season to taste and serve.

 

 
Notes:

Serve with gluten-free bread such as Ener-G, which is also dairy-free and soya-free, and can be enjoyed as bread without needing to be toasted!
