Leek Potato and Lentil soup

by Jo

Serves 3-4

1 large leek
1 large potato, diced
½ cup red lentils
1 litre water
1 tbsp vegetable stock powder
Salt and pepper

Cut the leek in half lengthways and wash well to remove any dirt, cut into approximately 1cm slices.

Place all the ingredients in a large saucepan.

Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer gently for approximately 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Blend until smooth, either in a blender, or in the pan with a hand held stick blender. If you want a slightly thinner soup you can add a little more water at this stage.

Taste and add seasoning if required.

Serve with crusty bread…
