Does anyone have a good leak/potato/onion soup recipe?

Question

any kind that is simular but not thick just creamy.

Answer 1

Cut up your leek, potatoes, & onion. Place in a pot cover with water. Add desired spices. Bring pot to a boil. Lower heat & cover pot. Simmer for 1 hour, covered, on low heat. Strain the water from the pot into a bowel & save. Put the cooked 3 ingredients into a blender & liquify the ingredients, adding the saved water a little bit at a time into the blender. If you have extra, it freezes well. This blended mixture will be your soup BASE, you can then add your other ingredients according to your health & diet needs. For instance, you specified creamy, not thick, so stay away from thickeners like cream, 1/2 & 1/2, whole milk, cornstartch, flour. Leeks & potatoes will be a naturally thick mixture anyway, so adding the water helps to thin it out. Anyway, take your blender mixture & return it to the pot. Heat it up & slowly add a milk until it is the desired consistency that you like. Any type of milk works. Whole, low-fat, or nonfat (skim). Even SOY MILK...just keep the heat LOW when adding it! Enjoy!
