Potato and Leek Soup

1.5 litres of chicken soup
1 teaspoon of chicken powder
1 teaspoon of sugar
1 brown onion chopped
2-3 cloves of garlic sliced
4 tablespoon of butter
2 leeks sliced thinly
5 big potatoes (cut into 1.5cm cubes) 
salt
125ml thickened cream

Warm up the chicken soup in a pot. Add the chicken powder and sugar.

To a wok add 2 tablespoons of butter,garlic, onion then the potato. Stir fried the potatoes until they become starchy, will start sticking to the wok. 
Transfer them into the chicken soup pot.

Wash and dry the wok. 

Add the remainder of the butter, then the leek. Stir fried until the leek just wilted. If over cooked the colour will turn yellowish/brown and won't be green anymore.

Once the potatoes are cooked, add the leek. I used the bamix to process the potatoes and leek to a smooth consistency. 

Add the cream and lightly salt the soup.

The soup should look like it has green specks running through it from the leek.

Beautiful for a wintry day, seal of approval from hubby and all the kids and me:)

NB. Garnish with bacon crisps , chopped chives..my friend garnish hers with swirls of sour cream..
