Ingredients

• 2 potatoes, peeled and diced
• 1 liter vegetable broth
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

1. Start by washing and slicing the leeks. Make sure to remove any dirt that may be trapped between the layers.
2. Peel and dice the potatoes into small bite-sized pieces. Be careful with the knife and ask for help if needed.
3. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the leeks and cook until they are soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
4. Add the diced potatoes to the pot and pour in the vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
5. Use a hand blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you don’t have a hand blender, you can carefully transfer the soup to a regular blender to puree in batches.
6. Season the soup with black pepper to taste. You can also add some chopped fresh herbs for extra flavor.
