Time 1h10m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 large leeks, cleaned and thinly sliced
4 large stalks celery, thinly sliced
3 large white onions, peeled and halved
1 large fennel bulb, thinly sliced
2 large baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 tablespoon salt
1 ½ teaspoons ground black pepper
8 cups water
2 cubes vegetable bouillon

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan or soup kettle over medium-low heat, place the olive oil, leeks, celery, onions, fennel, potatoes, salt, and pepper, and cook and stir until the onions are translucent and the vegetables have begun to soften, about 10 minutes.
  • Pour 8 cups of water over the vegetables, bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and drop in the vegetable bouillon cubes. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the cubes, until the vegetables are tender and the potatoes have begun to thicken the soup, about 30 minutes.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I always have a few pieces of cooked chicken in my fridge, so this is a go-to recipe for me.

I'm not a big fan of fennel, but I really enjoyed this soup. The leeks and potatoes helped to balance out the flavor of the fennel.

I added a cup of cooked rice to this soup to make it even more filling. It was a great addition.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the chicken broth from this recipe. It was still very flavorful and delicious.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my soup turned out watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This soup was a little too bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper, and it was much better.
