Leek and Potato Soup

A cheap and spicy soup - a little goes a long way!

• Ready In: 55 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 3  tablespoons  oil (any)
• 3  teaspoons curry powder
• 1⁄2 cup  soup mix (mix of barley, split peas, tiny pasta etc)
• 4 -5  leeks, cleaned and sliced
• 2  large potatoes, skins on, chopped
•  water
• 2  teaspoons tamarind paste

Directions

1. In a medium-sized soup pot fry the curry powder in the oil while preparing the veg.
2. Add the soup mix, then the veg.
3. Boil up a couple of kettles of water and fill the pan to the top. I'm guessing 4 litres? it looks a lot.
4. Add 2 good tsp of tamarind concentrate.
5. Simmer until the soup mix bits are softened.
6. I serve it with Yeast Free Bread #67405 and it is delicious!
7. Great if you're keeping Lent, great if you're struggling with the pennies - both of which is me this month!
