Recipe's preparation

Potato, Leek and Fennel Soup

1. Add Leek, Onion, Fennel and Garlic to bowl. Chop 5 secs, speed 5.

2. Add Butter to bowl. Cook 5 mins, speed 1, 98ºC, scraping down the sides of the bowl halfway through cooking.

3. Add Potatoes and cook another 5 mins, speed 1, 98ºC.

4. Add Stock and cook 20 mins, speed 2, 98ºC, or until potatoes are soft.

5. Puree for 60 secs by placing MC on lid and gradually increasing speed from 5 to 9, until mixture is smooth.

6. Add Coconut milk, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

7. Cook another 3 mins, 98ºC, speed 2.

Variation: Add some finely chopped ham in step 7 and use reverse blades, speed 1.5.

Tip

I often don't even peel the potatoes as the potato skin has a high nutritional content. Peeling them creates a smoother, creamier consistency but if you're not fussed by presentation and are more concerned about nutritional value then leaving the peel on is just as yummy!

Thermomix Model

Recipe is created for
TM 5

If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
