Our winters are progressively similar to stormy, dim, and bleak, so I should better stop wandering off in fantasy land about snow-shrouded mountains and solidified lakes. I mean there is snow, yet it simply doesn't occur frequently. In any case, on the in addition to side this blustery climate is ideal for generous soups and stews! 

A day or two ago we had this veggie lover potato kale soup, which was truly warming as well as very delightful and solid!


Ingredients : 
  • For the vegan potato kale soup:
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2,5 heaped cups potatoes, cut into small cubes
  • 1/2 heaped cup carrots, chopped into small pieces
  • 1/2 heaped cup celery (root), chopped into small pieces
  • 2 cups leek, cut into rings
  • 3 1/2 cups vegetable broth
  • 2-3 handfull kale, cut into stripes
  • salt
  • black pepper

For the topping:
  • 2 slices whole wheat toast
  • one teaspoon vegan margarine
  • 1 tablespoon roasted pumpkin seeds
  • 1-2 tablespoons soy or oat cuisine/cream

Instructions :
  1. In a large pot, heat some olive oil and sauté the onion for about 2 minutes. Then add the garlic and sauté for another minute.
  2. Stir in the potatoes, carrots, celery, and leek. Cook for 3 minutes. Then add the vegetable broth and cook for 15 minutes.
  3. In the meantime, make the homemade croutons. Cut the whole wheat toast into small cubes. Heat the vegan margarine in a small pan and roast the toast cubes for about 3 minutes until they're crispy and golden. Set aside.
  4. After the soup has cooked for about 15 minutes, add the kale and cook for another 2 minutes.
  5. Season with salt and pepper and blend until creamy. If you want the soup to be thinner, add some more vegetable broth.
  6. Top the soup off with soy or oat cuisine and sprinkle it with roasted pumpkin seeds and homemade croutons.
