Thai-Spiced Potato-Leek Soup

Potato-leek soup is great and all, but why not spice it up a bit? This one gets a kick from classic Thai flavors like lemongrass, chili paste, and ginger. We’ve also added tofu for a pop of protein. 

Ingredients

  • 2 cup Leeks – cleaned and sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • 3 cup Yellow Potatoes – peeled and quartered
  • 1 cup Firm Tofu – cubed
  • 1 tsp Ginger, fresh
  • 2 Garlic, clove
  • 1 tbsp Lemongrass – minced
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Thai Chili Paste
  • 3 cup Vegetable Broth, low-sodium
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1/4 cup Avocado Oil
  • Salt – to taste
  • Black Pepper, ground – to taste
  • Cilantro – to garnish

Directions

1

Heat 2 tablespoons avocado oil in a medium pot over low heat. Add leeks, potatoes and cook until leeks soften, about 7 minutes. Stir often to keep mixture from sticking.

2

Add the remaining avocado oil, along with ginger, garlic, lemongrass, Thai chili and tofu pieces. Stir to coat evenly.

3

Add the vegetable broth, water, salt and pepper to taste. Raise heat to medium-high, bring broth to boil, then reduce heat back to low. Partially cover the pot with a lid and allow to simmer for 8 to 10 minutes until potatoes are fork tender.

4

Remove from heat and allow to cool for 20 minutes. 

5

Transfer the soup mixture into the magic bullet Pitcher and attach the lid. Load and lock the Pitcher onto the motor base.

6

Blend on LOW for one full cycle. Blend a second time if needed or until it reaches desired texture.

7

Transfer to bowls and garnish.
