How to Make Potato Leek Soup With Fennel And Watercress
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add leeks and fennel and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add diced potatoes and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
- Stir in watercress, salt, pepper, and nutmeg (if using). Simmer for another 2-3 minutes until watercress wilts.
- Carefully use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a regular blender and blend until smooth. (Be cautious when blending hot liquids.)
- Stir in milk or cream (if using). Heat through but do not boil.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve hot, garnished with extra watercress or a swirl of cream if desired.
