Recipe Description

This heartwarming Vegan Cock-a-Leekie Soup, inspired by the traditional Scottish dish, offers a delightful blend of leeks, barley, and a bouquet of aromatic herbs. Without the use of chicken, this vegan version incorporates delicious vegetable broth and prunes for a hint of natural sweetness, delivering a comforting and satisfying meal, perfect for chilly winter evenings or cozy fall dinners.

Ingredients

  • 3 leeks, cleaned and sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 200g pearl barley, rinsed
  • 1.5 litres vegetable broth
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 100g chopped prunes
  • Salt to taste
  • Parsley for garnish

Steps:

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add the sliced leeks and sauté until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the pearl barley and cook for another minute.
  4. Pour in the vegetable broth, add the bay leaf, dried thyme, and black pepper. Bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes or until the barley is tender.
