Ingredients for creamy leek soup with vegan cheese, seitan and cashew nuts
- 1 Veggie Protein Bloc, ground or cut very finely into seitan
- 500 g onions
- 500 g leeks
- 1.5 l vegetable bouillon
- 200 ml white wine
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 150 g yeast flakes
- 100 g cashew nuts (soaked overnight)
- A pinch of pepper
- A pinch of fleur de sel (Amanprana)
- 1 tsp Herb mix (Amanprana ORAC Botanico Mix with chilli)
- 1 tbsp red palm oil (Amanprana)
Preparation of creamy leek soup with vegan cheese, seitan and cashew nuts
- Clean the onions and leeks and cut them into fine rings.
- Flash-fry the seitan mince in red palm oil, then add the vegetables and allow to cook on medium heat for around 20 minutes.
- Douse with the bouillon and the white wine and bring to the boil.
- Then mix with a stick mixer until the soup is creamy.
- It will be creamiest when you also puree the seitan, but you can also fry it separately and add to the soup later.
- Then add the yeast flakes, season with the herb mix and bring back to the boil.
- If the soup is too watery, add a few more yeast flakes.
- The soup is best if you leave it in the fridge overnight and reheat it the following day. Enjoy!
