Instructions

  • In a medium soup pot, melt the vegan butter over low heat. Stir the flour into the butter to form a roux and cook gently for 3 to 4 minutes. This roux will thicken the soup and enrich its flavor.
  • Add the vegetable broth, leeks, onion, and potatoes to the pot. Bring to a boil, then cover with a lid and simmer on low heat for 20 to 25 minutes until the potatoes have softened.
  • Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Incorporate the milk, adjusting the salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the soup garnished with fresh chives.
