Friday was leek and potato soup day! Members of the Green team harvested leeks at morning tea time and then chopped them along with potatoes. This was all saute’d together in butter. (It smelt devine!, and set off the smoke detector-ooops!)
Next chicken stock and water were added and the whole thing left to simmer away until all the veges were cooked through. Once cooked and cooled a little, the soup was whizzed up until smooth.
Later in the day the Green team from each class got to sample the brew! Delicious was pretty much the unanimous response! Other comments included ‘Hey, my Nana makes this!’ ‘This is like Dads Samoan soup!’ “This is the best soup ever!”
So leeks and potatoes are definitely going into the garden for this summer!
