Delicious and easy to make. The hardest part is chopping veggies. Also, it's easy to adapt if you are missing ingredients. I didn't have a potato, so mushed garbanzo beans worked well as a substitute. And, I used 2 ckn bullion cubes and 4 c water in place of ckn stock. Still tasted delicious. Good for a family meal or to impress guests as a starter.

Very good! I followed recipe and added garlic to sauté, doubled the curry, added freshly zested ginger prior to using my immersion blender and then served with a sprinkle of dill on top. Even my boys (8&9) loved it. Thanks!

This is a good soup. Very similar in taste to the Curried Pear & Butternut Squash Soup on this site. My boyfriend was expecting this to be so horrible because he doesn't like carrots, but he said it turned out ok. I imagine you could get a similar taste with onions if you didn't have leeks. We modified the recipe a bit by putting in 2T minced garlic, 1/2t ginger paste and 2t of curry powder.

More complexity? My tweaking: Same ingredients as recipe, except as follows: Use butter, not margarine, unless vegan. Add 1/2 red pepper to saute. Do NOT peel potatoes, but use thin skinned ones (they will be pureed anyway; why throw away nutrients?). Change 1/2 t curry to: 1 T curry (or more to taste), 1 1/2 t (or 1/2 T) garam masala, 1/4 t Indian red chili powder (cayenne is usable, but NOT Mexican). Be prepared to add liquid promptly after adding spices. You want spices to be opened by heat on bottom of pan, not burned. Reduce liquid to 2 cans of vegetable broth, plus 1 can water. Note: Dish can be prepared to this point and finished later. After vegetables are softened by broth and water, add 1 can coconut milk and bring back up to temperature. Wait until shortly before pureeing to add coconut milk. (Shake can well.) I find that this soup is best served warm, not hot. Also easier to transfer to and from blender if not too hot. Obviously calories go up with coconut milk, but with added spices and coconut milk there is a more complex SE Asian flavor. Layers, folks, keep thinking layers. P.S. The sweet potato idea is a good one! And they cook in water faster than some white potatoes. Sweet potatoes: An under-utilized addition to soups.

Great soup. I hate it when people change the recipes.... but it had to be done after I tasted the soup. I almost tripled the curry. used sweet potato. added a few garlic cloves when cooking the leeks and carrots. and added much more salt and ginger. The soup was delish with a little tweaking. But I love strong soups. If you love a strong, full soup, then tweak, baby, tweak. Great recipe.

I didn't puree it and left it as a chunky soup. It was delicious!. I also used a half pound of carrots, only 2 leeks and 2 chicken bouillon cubes with 4 cups of water.

Delicious! I added some fresh ginger and garlic to the soup before blending it as some others mentioned. Also served it with a little dollop of sour cream. Perfect when carrots are on sale and a good soup to freeze for leftovers.

This was pretty awesome. I almost never rate recipes but this one was soooo good and it helped me cook leeks. I will go out lf my way to make this in the future. I used 2x the curry amount but that's because I like curry.

I've made this twice in the last two weeks and love it. I agree with other reviewers: add more curry powder, along with some minced ginger and garlic.
