Curried Leek Soup

November 6, 2009

I followed a recipe by Arnold Foss on AllRecipes.com but modified it for the ingredients I had on hand. It was amazingly good!

Fresh Ingredients
2 large leeks, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 cup fat-free half ‘n half cream
1 clove garlic, minced
¾ cup water

PantryFare
1 can broth

Spices and Oils
2 T olive oil
2 cubes vegetable bouillon
½ tsp curry powder
1/8 tsp pepper
sprinkle red pepper flakes

Saute the leeks and garlic in the olive oil until tender. Add everything except the cream and simmer for 25 minutes. Puree 1 cup of of the soup in your blender until smooth. Add cream and pureed soup to the pan and reheat but do not boil.
