Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

340 g chickpeas, soaked for one night
1 potato, medium, peeled
5 leeks, medium
Pam cooking spray
2 garlic cloves, minced
850 ml chicken bouillon granules or 850 ml vegetable bouillon granules
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Rinse the soaked chick peas and cover with water.
  • Add chopped potato and cook until veggies are tender.
  • Clean, wash, and mince the leeks.
  • Heat a large soup pan, spray with Pam.
  • Add the leeks and garlic, cook slowly with a good pinch of salt.
  • Add the chickpeas and potato and cook for a minute.
  • Add 2/3 of the bouillon and cook for 15 minutes.
  • Decide if you want to purée the soup, purée part, or not purée at all.
  • I like the purée part of the soup option and add back to the pot, so half is puréed and half chunky.
  • The easiest way it to use an immersion mixer, and blend until you have the consistency you want.
  • Add however much of the left over 1/3 bouillon to get the texture you want, salt and pepper to taste, add 1T of grated Parmesan and mix Sprinkle the rest of the Parmesan over the top to serve.
