Leek and Kale soup

Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 leek
  • 200 g of kale
  • 1 onion

  • 900 ml vegetable or chicken stock

Instructions

  • Roughly chop the leek, onion and finely chop the garlic. If using fresh whole kale, tear off the leaves leaving behind any tough stalks.
  • Gently fry the onion, leek and garlic for a few minutes on medium heat.
  • Add the kale to the pot and stir until the leaves have wilted.
  • Add the vegetable stock and bring to the boil, then simmer for a few minutes.
  • Blend together using your blender to a consistency you like. I like this soup with a few chunks of veg in it.
  • Stir in some freshly ground black pepper and salt to taste.
  • Serve with chunks of cheese crumbled on top.
