Recipe Summary Potato Carrot Soup With Leeks And Kale (Instant Pot&Reg;)
This hearty, fall soup gets its lovely, golden color from the carrots. I prefer to use all-organic produce, and think it tastes better, though it isn't required. I make it in the Instant Pot®. However, I've included instructions for other methods as well. Serve garnished with carrot leaves.Ingredients | Aqua Optima Filter Instructions¼ pound bacon, diced1 bunch kale, leaves and stalks separated2 leeks, thinly sliced, or to taste1 large carrot, chopped, green tops reserved½ teaspoon Hungarian paprika, or to tastesea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste8 potatoes, chopped into bite-size pieces, or to taste1 (10.5 ounce) can beef broth, or as needed1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, or more to taste¼ cup sour cream, or more to tasteDirectionsTurn on a multi-cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and the select Saute function. Add bacon; cook and stir until nearly crisped, about 5 minutes.Chop kale stalks into small pieces; place into the pot with the bacon. Add leeks and carrot. Cook and stir, scraping the bottom of the pot, until leeks are almost tender, about 5 minutes. Add kale leaves, carrot greens, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook, continuing to scrape the pot, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in potatoes and enough broth to reach the max fill line.Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 13 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build. Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove lid. Stir in Cheddar cheese and sour cream.I like to double the bacon and vegetable saute amounts, and scoop out half the mixture to freeze for another batch (or other soup/stew) before adding the potatoes and broth.You can substitute chicken broth or vegetable broth for the beef broth if preferred. Homemade vegetable or bone broth is ideal!If you prefer a vegetarian/vegan version, omit the bacon and saute the veggies in oil of your choice.Info | Aqua Optima Filter Instructionsprep: 30 mins cook: 35 mins additional: 5 mins total: 1 hr 10 mins Servings: 12 Yield: 6 quarts
