Leek and Potato Soup

I have just made and consumed a very nice soup that I thought I'd share. I got the recipe from http://www.parsleysoup.co.uk/ and only changed a few things. This website is fabulous for vegan soup recipes!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 large leeks (I didn't have 2!)
1 red onion (I prefer these to the white ones)
2 medium potatoes
1 clove of garlic (I use garlic in everything!)
25g (1 oz) margarine
750ml (1 1/4 pints) vegetable stock
200 ml (7 fl oz) soya milk
Salt and pepper
Method:
1) Chop the onion and leeks. Peel and dice the potatoes.

2) Heat margarine in a pan over a low heat and cook the vegetables for 10 minutes, until soft

3) Add stock and simmer for 20 minutes then purée with a blender.

4) Pour it back into the pan with the soya milk. Season and reheat before serving.

This is a gorgeous soup for winter. It made enough for two bowls so I shall put the other half in the fridge for later!
