LEEK POTATO SOUP

BY DISHA LAHORI

Potato leek soup

Leek soup is a soup based on potatoes, leeks, stock, and milk . Other ingredients used may be salt, pepper, and various spices.

Leeks are a good source of vitamins A, C and K (important for helping your blood to clot). They also contain minerals such as iron (which is important for red blood cells) and manganese (involved in the regulation of brain and nerve function). Leeks are also a good source of dietary fibre

Leeks are widely known vegetables that have been used in local cuisine for hundreds of years. Their incredible properties make them a preferred ingredient for chefs and anybody trying to stick to a healthy diet. This superfood, in fact, contains high levels of flavonoids, vitamins A, E, and K, and fibers.
