Take some leeks from the garden.
Make your kitchen hand (partner) peel some potatoes.
Chop everything roughly.
Amy thinks potato cubes are for building with.
Saute it off with some bacon and cover with chicken stock. When soft, use a blender or a stick mixer to puree it.
Serve with cream and parsley.
Also – take photos of the summer sky:
I blame Zoeyjane for this weeks weekly winners, I was going to make tomato and onion soup, but then she made potato and leek soup and I remembered I had a bunch of leeks that needed using and there you go. Potato and leek soup.

Not at all like my potato and leek recipe, but looks yummy. Think I’ll make some next week…..
I’ve never had potato and leek soup… but now I want to try it!!! Great shots!
Great series, you made me hungry! Great minds think alike, as it happens mine is food related too!
Denise – I really like it for a winter dish. It’s summer here atm, but we’re having a cold snap and I had leeks that needed using, so tada!
Looks absolutely gorgeous Veronica!

Love those shots! I especially like the one where Amy built what looks like a tiny potato girl with leek hair. 😀
Of course, the last shot makes me feel all dreamy. Beautiful!
Wow. I can’t stop staring at your potatoes.
mmmmm that soup looks/sounds delish! I want!
Now, I want soup!
yummo, must make potato and leek soup tonight in celebration of the first day of Autumn, me thinks… or perhaps it’s because yours looks so yummy.
CK- It was dark outside, with the clouds, it’s a 15 second exposure, looking straight up at the sky.
And to everyone else Thankyou!! 🙂
that soup looks delish!

Oh goodness me but I love potato and leek soup – it is so yummy 🙂 Cant wait for winter so it can cool down enough for soup!
Mmmm, pot and leek is one of my favourites. I’ve never put bacon in, I’ll have to try that next time.
That picture is fabulous.
It seems funny that you’re heading for pot and leek soup weather – it’s the first day of spring here!

The sky photo is amazing.
Mmmmmm. Those potatoes look perfect.
Oh yum… That’s exactly what I should make for dinner tomorrow.
