Gut-Healing Potato Leek Soup

Ingredients

Directions

1. Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed soup pot.

2. Sauté onion and leeks for about 5 minutes.

3. Add the potatoes, garlic, spices, and broth.

4. Mix well.

5. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to simmer, and cover for about 20 minutes.

6. Make sure the potatoes are cooked until tender.

7. Final options: put it all in a blender until smooth, or keep it a hearty, chunky soup.

Notes

Leeks support PCOS as they are rich in vitamins and minerals, suppress tumor growth, fight chronic inflammatory conditions, support cardiovascular health and promote weight loss. 

Potatoes contain antioxidants, support digestion and can help improve blood sugar control. They are grounding to vata and cooling to pitta. The spices used balance the heaviness to kapha

Dosha Type

Tridoshic recipe that can be customized further: 

Vata: increase warmth: add more of the original spices 

Pitta: increase cooling: add coconut milk or coconut cream, garnish with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice 

Kapha: increase stimulating: add more ginger, black pepper or even a chili pepper
