- 4 Wiener sausages(Or other similar frankfurter-style sausages. Slice into bite-sized rounds.)
- 100 ml Heavy cream(For richness. Can be substituted with milk for a lighter version.)
- 1.2 L Vegetable or chicken broth(Low sodium is recommended to control saltiness.)

👨🍳 Instrukcje
- 1
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the butter or oil over medium heat. Add the diced bacon and cook until it begins to crisp and render its fat, about 5-7 minutes. Add the sliced leeks to the pot with the bacon and sauté until softened and slightly golden, stirring occasionally, for another 5-7 minutes. Be careful not to burn the leeks.
⏱️ 10-14 minutes - 2
Add the cubed potatoes to the pot along with the broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
⏱️ 25-30 minutes - 3
Once the potatoes are tender, use an immersion blender to partially purée the soup directly in the pot. Blend until about half to two-thirds of the potatoes are mashed, leaving some chunks for texture. Alternatively, scoop out about 2 cups of the soup solids and mash them with a potato masher or fork before returning them to the pot.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Stir in the sliced Wiener sausages and the heavy cream. Continue to simmer gently for another 5 minutes, allowing the sausages to heat through and the flavors to meld. Do not boil after adding the cream. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Ladle the hot soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired. Serve immediately.
