2 large tablespoons carrots ( cut in small cubes)
2 large tablespoons finely sliced leeks (only the green part)

1 stock cube (optional)
1 liter water or clear chicken stock

1 grind of pepper to serve ( optional)

PS: There are some other version of this soup that can be made with fresh peas and an addition of potatoes too.

Notes: if you are using salty stock cubes do not add salt. same if you are using a salty smoked bacon. if you are using any of the above only add salt once the soup is finished to correct the seasoning.
