Vegetarian Soups

Leek & Potato

Ingredients

- 10 mini potatoes

- 6-8 leeks

- salt.

Literally 15 minutes of preparation for this comforting and warm soup. Boil the vegetables together for 10-15 minutes. Drain the water (but save a bit of it) and blend altogether. 

Carrot & Thyme 

I love soup of any kind but this is one of my favourite so far. 

Ingredients:

- 1 kg carrots

- 2 potatoes

- 2 springs thyme

- 4 bay leaves

- 2 garlic cloves

- 1 red onion

- chives.

Put the peeled carrots, potatoes, thyme, bay leaves and garlic in a large pot with roughly 1 L of water and bring it to boiling point for 30 minutes.  In the meantime, finely chop the onion and chives and pan-fry (low-heat) them with a couple of tbs rice oil for 10-15 minutes. Once the vegetables are cooked, take out the bay leaves and thyme and drain the water keeping a bit of it. Blend altogether and finally add the onion and chives on top of it.
