Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Preheat a large pan on high heat. Fry bacon until crispy, remove from pan, dice and set aside.

* Step 2

In a large pot, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Followed by the onion, carrots, celery, leeks, garlic and mix together with a spoon. Cook for around 10 minutes with the lid on, stirring every 2-3 minutes. Until the carrots have softened, but are still holding their shape.

* Step 3

Now add, the bacon, (keep a few pieces for garnish) potatoes and the stock into the pot. Stir the soup and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

* Step 4

Add the cream, bring it to the boil and simmer for a further 5 minutes.

* Step 5

Remove the pot from the heat. Season with salt and pepper. Pulse until smooth using a hand blender or liquidizer. Divide between your serving bowls and sprinkle the rest of the bacon on top.
