To make this creamy potato soup, I started by preparing the leeks.

I used three large leeks to make this soup.

I started by chopping of the roots and the dark green parts.

Then I sliced each leek in half lengthwise.

I separated all of the layers of the leeks and washed them well.

There is always a lot of dirt hiding inside the layers of leeks.

After the leeks were clean, I chopped them up into small pieces.

Then I added some butter to large pot over medium heat.

I waited for the butter to melt.

Then I added the chopped leeks to the pot.

I also added some salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder to the pot.

Then I stirred well until all of the leeks were coated in butter.

I continued cooking the leeks, stirring occasionally, for four minutes.

Then I added some chicken broth to the pot.

I increased the heat and brought the chicken broth to a boil.

Once the broth was boiling I reduced the heat to medium-low.

Then I added some instant mashed potato mix to the pot.

I whisked well.

Then I added some milk to the pot.

I whisked until the soup was smooth.

I left the soup to simmer for fifteen minutes, stirring occasionally.

Then the hearty soup was ready to serve.

By using instant mashed potatoes in this recipe instead of raw potatoes, no blending is required to get the smooth creamy texture.

This creamy potato soup with leeks is a delicious comfort food perfect for cold days.
