Directions:
- Prepare the Vegetables:
- Clean the leeks thoroughly to remove any dirt or sand between the layers.
- Finely chop the leeks and grate or finely chop the carrot.
- Sauté the Vegetables:
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add the chopped leeks and carrot to the pot, and sauté until they soften and the leeks become translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Cook the Soup:
- Add the diced potatoes to the pot and stir to combine with the leeks and carrots.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
- Add Pasta (Optional):
- If using pasta, add it to the pot and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente.
- Season and Garnish:
- Season the soup with salt, pepper, and dried herbs like thyme or oregano if desired.
- Stir in the chopped fresh parsley just before serving.
- Serve:
- Ladle the hot soup into bowls and serve immediately, perhaps with a slice of crusty bread.
This soup is warming, nutritious, and perfect for a cozy meal. The combination of leeks and carrots provides a mild sweetness, while the potatoes and pasta add heartiness.
