I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much liquid.

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

I'm not a huge fan of leeks, but this soup was still really good. The potatoes and creaminess balanced out the leeks well.
