Sometimes, it’s nice to have something warming to eat when it’s cold outside, and soup is always one of my go to things to make for anyone. Â This recipe is nice and simple, and gives a slight twist on the traditional leek and potato soup… Â Enjoy.
Of course, you don’t need a soupmaker to make this. Â It makes just as well in a pan, but you need to watch it a lot more and add some more water if it looks like it’s boiling off.
