Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons olive oil
-
3 leeks, chopped, or more to taste
-
½ yellow onion, chopped
-
3 cups peeled and cubed potatoes, or more to taste
-
4 cups water
-
4 cubes vegetable bouillon
-
1 bunch fresh spinach, chopped, or more to taste
-
2 cups milk
-
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
-
2 teaspoons salt
-
¼ teaspoon ground paprika
-
¼ teaspoon chili powder
Directions
-
Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add leeks and onion; simmer until tender, about 7 minutes. Add potatoes, water, and bouillon cubes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes.
-
Stir in spinach and cook until wilted and soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add milk, pepper, salt, paprika, and chili powder. Let cook for 5 minutes more; adjust spices to taste.
Cook's Notes:
Add more or less spinach depending on how much you enjoy it. Also, make sure the spinach is chopped into small pieces, otherwise it is difficult to eat with a spoon.
You can use chicken or vegetable broth instead of water and bouillon cubes.
