Leek, Potato & Hazelnut Soup With Truffle Oil
The secret to souped-up soup? A drizzle of truffle oil
The final touch to this delicious soup, apart from the truffle oil, is some hot toasty bread to go alongside. Don’t forget a good layer of butter. Ready in 30 minutes, this soup is a great mid-week dinner, or serve it as a starter to a fancy mid-winter dinner party.
