Instructions
Peel and finely chop the onion. Top and tail the leeks and roughly slice them. Cut the potato into 1cm chunks (no need to peel).
Heat the oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Add the onion, leeks and potato. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring often.
Tip in the stock. Bring to the boil then turn the heat down to low and simmer for 15 minutes until the potatoes are soft.
Turn off the heat. Add the ricotta, then use a stick blender to blend to a smooth consistency. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
Serve topped with a drizzle of chilli oil.
