Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Leek and Fennel Soup.
Step 1
To start your delicious soup, grab a large saucepan or soup kettle and warm up some olive oil over medium-low heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in the sliced leeks, celery, onions, fennel, and potatoes.
Step 3
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper over the veggies to enhance their natural flavors.
Step 4
Stir everything together and let it cook for about 10 minutes, or until the onions turn translucent and the vegetables soften, filling your kitchen with a delightful aroma.
Step 5
Next, pour in enough water to cover the veggies and bring the mixture to a lively boil.
Step 6
When it’s bubbling away, lower the heat and add in the vegetable bouillon cubes, stirring gently to help them dissolve.
Step 7
Now, let your soup simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 8
This will allow the vegetables to become tender and the potatoes to thicken the soup, creating a comforting and hearty dish.
Step 9
Enjoy the process and savor the anticipation of a warm bowl of homemade goodness!.
