Ingredients
  • 400 ml vegetable stock
  • 200 g aged hard cheese, grated
  • 100 g cream cheese
  • 1 leek, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, peeled and finely chopped

  • 400 ml single cream
  • 3 green onion leaves
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • saltâ €
Cooking method
  1. Heat oil in a pot, lightly fry the garlic in it, add the leeks, and fry until golden brown. Reduce heat to low. Add grated cheese, butter, and flour. Constantly stirring, cook for 2-3 minutes. Add vegetable stock, increase heat to medium and bring soup to boil.
  2. Reduce heat and add cream, wine, cream cheese, salt, and pepper to the soup. Leave the soup to simmer over low heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring constantly so that the cheese does not settle to the bottom of the pan. Top with chopped green onions when serving.
My tips and tricks
In this soup, the taste depends a lot on the cheese you use. Pecorino soup will taste different from aged cheddar soup.
