Leek & potato soup recipe | Jamie Oliver recipes image

This super-simple classic leek and potato soup is satisfying and nutritious, too.

Total Time 35 minutes

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 carrots
2 sticks of celery
2 medium onions
2 cloves of garlic
400 g leeks
400 g potatoes
olive oil
2 organic chicken or vegetable stock cubes

Steps:

    1. Trim, peel and roughly slice the carrots and celery. Peel and roughly chop the onions. Peel and finely slice the garlic.
    2. Cut the ends off the leeks, quarter them lengthways, wash them under running water and cut them into 1cm slices.
    3. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large pan on a high heat, add all the chopped and sliced ingredients and cook with the lid ajar for 10 minutes, or until softened, stirring regularly.
    4. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut them into 1cm cubes.
    5. Put the stock cubes into a jug or pan, pour in 1.8 litres of boiling water and stir to dissolve, then pour into the veg pan.
    6. Add the potatoes. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes with the lid on, then remove from the heat.
    7. Season to taste with sea salt and black pepper, then either serve like this or pulse until smooth using a stick blender or liquidizer.

ROASTED POTATOES RECIPE | JAMIE OLIVER RECIPES

    1. Preheat the oven to 190ºC/375ºF/gas 5.
    2. Peel the potatoes, cutting any larger ones so they’re all an even-size – twice the size of a squash ball is about right.
    3. Wash the potatoes in cold water to get rid of any extra starch then tip into a large pot, cover with cold salted water and parboil for 7 minutes, then drain in a colander and leave to steam dry for 3 minutes.
    4. Give the colander a bit of a shake to help chuff up the potatoes – this will help to make them super-crisp later on.
    5. At this point, you need to decide which flavour combo to go with. Tip the potatoes into a large tray in one layer, and add the fat – olive oil, butter or goose fat – then season really well with sea salt and black pepper.
    6. Toss the potatoes in the fat (you could get the potatoes up to this stage the day before, simply cover them with clingfilm or tin foil and pop in the fridge or in a cool place until needed), then roast for 30 minutes, or until lightly golden and three quarters cooked.
    7. Now’s the time for my trick. Gently squash each potato with a potato masher to increase the surface area – the more of your potato that’s in contact with the pan, the crispier it will be.
    8. Add 1 good lug of oil to a small bowl and pick and/or tear in the herbs. If opting for flavour combo 2, peel in a good few strips of clementine zest with a speed-peeler – you won’t eat these but they’ll add amazing flavour. Break up the garlic bulb, adding the unpeeled cloves to the bowl, along with a splash of red wine vinegar, then scrunch and mix it up a bit.
    9. Add your chosen flavour combo to the potatoes and give the pan a good shake, then pop back in the hot oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until gnarly, crispy, bubbly and delicious.
    10. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper to drain off some of the excess fat, then tuck in!

  • Reduce the heat to low, add the shallots, and cook for 30 to 40 minutes, until they are a rich golden brown. The temperature should stay below 260 degrees F. Stir the shallots occasionally to make sure they brown evenly. Remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon, drain well, and spread out to cool on paper towels. Once they have dried and crisped, they can be stored at room temperature, covered, for several days.

    1. If you’re cooking your veg separately, rather than with my perfect roast chicken, preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6.
    2. Peel the vegetables, halving any larger ones lengthways. Break the garlic bulb into cloves, leaving them unpeeled, and bash them slightly with the palm of your hand. Pick the rosemary leaves.
    3. Put the potatoes and carrots into a large pan – you may need to use two – of boiling salted water on a high heat and bring back to the boil. Allow to boil for 5 minutes, then add the parsnips and cook for another 4 minutes.
    4. Drain in a colander and allow to steam dry. Take out the carrots and parsnips and put to one side.
    5. Fluff up the potatoes in the colander by shaking it around a little – it’s important to ‘chuff them up’ like this if you want them to have all those lovely crispy bits when they’re cooked.
    6. Put a large roasting tray over a medium heat and either add a few generous lugs of olive oil or carefully spoon a little of the fat from the meat you’re cooking, and add the garlic and rosemary.
    7. Tip the vegetables into the tray, season with a good pinch of sea salt and black pepper and turn the veg over to coat them in the flavours. Spread them out evenly into one layer – this is important, as you want them to roast, not steam as they will if you have them all on top of each other.
    8. Roast for 1 hour, or until golden and crisp, then serve immediately with your roast and some delicious gravy.
