Directions:
- Heat oil in a saucepan on a low heat. Once oil is heated, add in the leeks, season and stir through, coating in the oil. Cover and sweat for approximately ten minutes until softened, stirring occasionally.
- Next add the potatoes and sweat for another five to six minutes.
- Add the water, bring to the boil then reduce heat and simmer for six to eight minutes until potatoes are soft enough for a knife to easily pierce them.
- Ladle the leek and potato into a blender then pour in the liquid. You should only half fill the blender so you may need to blend in two or three batches. If you don’t have a jug blender or food processor, you can use a hand blender to blend the soup in the saucepan.
- Blend until smooth, season to taste and serve piping hot with some buttered soda bread.
