Ingredients

Ingredients

You will need:

Cooking oil (about a tablespoon or two)
1/2 white onion, sliced or diced
1/2 red onion, sliced or diced
3 medium/large potatoes, cubed
2 medium leeks, sliced
1 medium Garlic bulb
1 teaspoon All Purpose seasoning
fresh ginger (about 5cm)
1 litre of vegetable stock (you can mix 3 veg cubes with hot water to make this)
150ml single cream or crème fraîche
A pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper
Optional freshly ground black pepper and chives to garnish

Method

1. Heat the oil in a large and deep pan, and add the onions, potatoes, garlic, ginger and leeks. Stir fry for 5 minutes or until they start to soften.
2. Add the vegetable stock to the pan and bring to the boil. Season well with salt, pepper and All Purpose seasoning, and simmer until the vegetables are tender. Make sure you stir it regularly so it does not stick to the bottom of the pan.
3. Once well cooked and mashy, pour it all in a blender and blend until smooth.
4. Return it to the hob in a clean pan, stir in the cream or crème fraîche, and make sure it's nice and hot again before you serve.
5. Garnish with chives and freshly ground black pepper (Optional)
