Steps to make Creamy Leek and Potato Soup:
- Using a large pan place on a medium heat, spray or drizzle with oil. Throw in the leeks to gently soften.

Meanwhile stirring regularly, chop up the potatoes.

- Add salt and pepper to taste. The soup needs to bubble for about 20 - 25 minutes until the potatoes are soft. Next blitz the soup in a blender. If you like your soup chunky don't bother with this next bit! Serve up and Enjoy! Yum
