750 grams of creamy potato, cut into chunks
2 small leeks, courtly cut

Sweat the onion till soft in a large pan for soup. Add the leeks and potato and cook on a low heat for 5 minutes, stirring regularly.
Add the cube of stock and enough cold water to cover the vegetables well. add the bayleaf to add flavour to the soup. Cook on a low heat for 15 minutes, or until all vegetables are soft. Add the cream, take out the bayleaf and blend with a stick blender till smooth, leaving a bit of texture. Stir in the salmon and the orange juice and season with salt and pepper.
Serve with fresh bread, home made is always best of course :))
