This is a twist on the good old fashioned potato and leek soup. While the zucchini/ corguette adds an extra smoothness to the soup, the cashew cream give it the final silky smooth creamy finish.

Instructions
Step 1
Clean and slice the leek
Peel and dice the potatoes
Peel and chop the onion
Clean and sliced the zucchini/corguette
Put all vegetables into a pot
Add the fennel, salt and pepper
Pour the stock over the vegetable
Bring to a boil then lower the heat.
Simmer for 30 minutes.
Blend soup with a hand blender, or allow to cool and blend in a high speed blender. Add cashew cream (see below) and stir through. Add soy yogurt Heat gently and serve. I like a dash of truffle oil on top or a scattering of nutritional yeast and of course a nice slice of buttered wholemeal bread.
Step 2
Cover the raw cashew nuts with boiling water and soak for 20 minutes. In a blender or spice grinder (I use a coffee/spice grinder), blend the cashew nuts with a few tbsp of plant milk until smooth. Add the nutritional yeast and give it another blend.
