Instructions

  • Heat the butter in a large pot over a medium heat. Add the leeks and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. [Do this step directly inside the slow cooker if it has a sauté function.]
  • Transfer the leeks in the slow cooker along with the ginger, broccoli, turmeric, salt, black pepper, sesame oil and vegetable broth. Cover and cook on low for 4 hours.
  • Once cooked, use a hand blender to blend the soup until creamy and smooth. Serve with a teaspoon of yogurt and sprinkle over some black sesame seeds.
