Leek and Carrot Soup

A typical Scottish soup, made with easily available ingredients, and entirely uncomplicated. The ingredients were: one diced leek (cut lengthwise, and then cut into smaller chunks), diced carrot, plus some semi-skinned potatoes, originally prepared as a mash with butter (i.e., leftovers).

I also added some vegetable stock, and a generous dash of black pepper.

Simmered in a lidded pan for at least an hour before serving.

Nutritious, and not a burden on anybody's digestive system :-).
