Healthy Celeriac & Leek Soup
Background
If you are on the 5:2 or other diet, this Healthy Celeriac & Leek Soup is the perfect filling meal to keep you going. It really is delicious and works out at only 72 kCal per portion! I make it in a pressure cooker but you can also simmer it instead for about 30 minutes - though do remember to stir regularly.
Ingredients
- 8g oil spray (8 kCal)
- 9g Garlic (13 kCal)
- 450g Leeks (99 kCal)
- 1800g Celeriac (324 kCal)
- 130g Sweet potato (113 kCal)
- 1000g Vegetable Stock (40 kCal)
Instructions
- Peal and finely chop the garlic. Peal and wash the celeriac, then chop into chunks. Clean the leeks and sweet potato then cut into chunks.
- Spray the oil into the pressure cooker pan then, over a medium heat, add the garlic & leeks. Stir for a couple of minutes to soften.
- Put in the other ingredient. Turn up the heat and bring up to high pressure for 8 minutes (10 for medium).
- Allow to cool. Remove lid and use a hand-blender to create a potage.
- Season to taste and serve.
Tips
If you're not vegetarian chicken stock gives it an even fuller flavour for only a few more calories.Categories
