korbo , this recipe is an oldie that I’ve made several times, it’s very easy as well as tasty.

100 grams butter
1 lge tbsp green herb stock powder
1 lge tbsp chicken stock powder
1 onion chopped
2 leeks sliced
8 - 10 medium potatoes, diced
water to cover
milk to thin
Melt butter in large pot, add onion, leek and potatoes, cook on medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Then cover with hot water, add stock powders previously mixed in a little warm water. Simmer till potatoes are tender. Blend and add milk if required. Season. Serves 6 - 8

I add a tsp of garlic to mine. I mash with a potato masher when the soup is cooked. You need to be a little careful if using a stick blender as it can turn to paste as there are so many potatoes. I prefer a thicker soup hence mashing rather than blending.

success27..... yes you could make this in your slow cooker. And you should always add a teaspoon of sugar to your soup, it makes all the difference. Also to stews and casseroles you should add a spoonful of brown sugar. Sugar to savoury and pinch of salt to sweet.

...cant imagine not having an oven. do you have elements, or how do you cook?

Hi, yes I’m sure you can, it’ll simply take longer, then blend all when cooked, and thin with the milk to how you like it.

korbo - glad you enjoyed it. It’s a favourite here through the winter.
