Curried Carrot and Leek Soup
Curry and leeks was not a combination I had previously come across but this soup is a joy to eat and vegan too.
Ingredients
Serves: 6
- 500g leeks, thinly sliced
- 500g carrots, diced
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium potato, peeled and diced
- 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 litre vegetable stock
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper

- In a large saucepan saute leeks and carrots in olive oil until leeks are tender. Add potato and curry powder; cook and stir for 2 minutes.
- Pour in stock, salt and pepper then bring to the boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until the vegetables are very tender.
- Using a hand-held immersion blender, blend the soup in the saucepan until smooth. Alternatively, blend only part way so that some vegetable pieces remain. Alternatively, blend in batches using a blender.
- When blended reheat and serve.

I love this soup, it's perfect everytime and I can never get enough of it - thankfully I have lots of veg in my garden so I can easily make another batch! The curry powder gives it a little kick and works great with the leeks and carrots - 11 Jan 2012 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
