An earthy, delicious soup that's very easy to make. This is a recipe that originally came from The Enchanted Broccoli Forest that I modified to include mushrooms and less milk. For the stock, I prefer to use Basic Light Vegetable Stock, recipe #56479. Enjoy!!

Time 1h45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 leeks, finely chopped (white part only)
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
4 medium potatoes (red or Yukon Gold), chopped
2 tablespoons butter, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ½ teaspoons ground mustard
2 tablespoons flour
½ cup water
3 cups chicken broth
salt, pepper, and celery salt, to taste
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
1 cup milk
3 ounces chopped portobello mushrooms
croutons for garnish, if desired

Steps:

  • In a skillet, cook leek, garlic, and potato in 1 tablespoon of butter and the olive oil over medium low heat, stirring often. Do not allow potato to brown.
  • Place mustard, salt, pepper, celery salt, and flour together in a bowl. Gradually whisk in water and chicken broth until well blended. Stir into potato mixture, and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook for 1 hour.

  • To garnish: Fresh herbs like chopped chives, parsley, or dill add a vibrant flavor and visual appeal to the soup. A sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese or crumbled bacon can also add a nice touch.
  • To add a creamy texture: For a richer, creamier soup, blend a portion of the soup until smooth and then stir it back into the pot. Alternatively, you can stir in some heavy cream or coconut milk.
  • To add a spicy kick: If you enjoy a bit of heat, consider adding a pinch of cayenne pepper, paprika, or a drizzle of hot sauce to the soup.
