There is nothing better than a big bowl of comforting potato soup, like a lovely warm hug.
Many potato soup recipes are packed full of butter, milk or cream, but this one is dairy free – although it still manages to be delightfully creamy and full of flavour!
Using bacon lardons throughout the soup brings a wonderful deep savouriness to the soup that will keep you coming back for more.

Potato is often a filler ingredient for soup. Something to thicken or add carbs to an otherwise watery broth. But here, they come into their own. Potatoes are delicious, and this soup will prove that to you.
The spinach adds a nice freshness to the soup – you could also use rocket, watercress or perhaps even stir through a handful of peas. Whatever you have to hand.
Key is seasoning. Make sure you taste your soup after blending to make sure that it is as delicious as it should be.
Easy Dairy Free Potato Soup
Ingredients
- 1 onion
- 150 grams bacon lardons
- 3 large white potatoes e.g. baking potatoes
- 1 litre vegetable stock
- 30 grams spinach leaves
- 2 tablespoons chives chopped
Instructions
- Peel the onion and roughly chop into small chunks.
- Put a large pan on a medium heat and fry the bacon lardons until golden. Take off the heat and remove half of the lardons from the pan. Put them in a bowl to use later.
- Peel the potatoes and chop into inch sized pieces.
- Put the pan (with the remaining half of the lardons in) back on a medium heat and add the onion. Fry for five minutes, stirring often. If the pan is dry, add a dash of olive oil.
- Add the potatoes and vegetable stock. Bring to a boil then simmer for 30 minutes.
- When the potatoes are cooked through, use a blender to whizz into a smooth soup. Taste, then season with salt and pepper. If the soup is very thick, you can add a little hot water to loosen it to your preferred consistency.
- Put the spinach in a colander and pour over some boiling water to wilt it.
- To serve, ladle the soup into bowls. Top with the spinach, the remaining bacon lardons and the chopped chives. Enjoy!
