Potato,leek and celery soup

Hi friends, 
Everyone loves a hot soup. Those who know me well, know that I love to make soups. I usually make different varieties of soup. Yesterday when looking at bb daily , I found celery and leek. For a long time, I wanted to try the potato and leek soup recipe. So I decided to make it today for dinner. Usually I make soup as a after school snack. But when I make soups for dinner,I add grilled cheese sandwich as a side dish. Dunking a grilled cheese sandwich in hot soup is too good in the rainy season and winter season. 

This is my version of potato and Leek soup. I added celery also.

INGREDIENTS:- 
Leek               - 1 cut into small pieces
Celery            - 1 cut into small pieces 
Potato            - 1 big
Garlic 
Salt 
Pepper 

Usually to make creamy soups, lots of butter and cream is used. Here creaminess comes from potato. 

In a tbsp of butter, fry the leek and celery pieces. Let it cook for 5 minutes.  Add pieces of potatoes to  it . I added potatoes with skin . Add cloves of garlic , black pepper and salt. 

Now cook the vegetables in the pressure cooker for 2 whistles.  After pressure releases, let it cool for some time.  Once it cools, blend the mixture into a smooth paste. Now add water to the paste to get desired consistency. Boil the soup for 5 minutes. 

Serve it hot with croutons or salad or sandwich.
