This dairy free potato and leek soup is made with leeks, potato and soya milk, so there is no dairy. Rinse the sliced leeks well, because soil collects between the layers. Blend until completely smooth, then add the milk and blend again.

How do you make dairy free potato and leek soup?

Trim the root and outer leaves from the leeks, halve lengthways and slice. Rinse in a colander to remove any soil.
Bring 1 litre of water to the boil in a large pot. Add the stock cube and diced potato and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until the potato is soft.
Melt the dairy free spread in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the leeks and cook for 6 to 9 minutes, until softened.
Add the leeks to the potatoes and simmer for 5 more minutes.
Blend with a hand blender until smooth. Add the soya milk and blend again.
Season with salt and pepper and serve.
