Peel the potato and cut into medium cubes, but to prevent the potato from oxidizing, place it in a bowl with cold water.

Cut the leek: first remove the green part, then cut the white part into three pieces for easier handling, then make a horizontal cut in each piece of leek and cut each half into thin strips, as if you wanted to make half moons. Set aside. Blend the tomato, onion, garlic, and chicken broth until well combined. Set aside. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat and sauté the leek for 2 minutes or until it looks shiny, then add the diced potato and cook for at least 5 minutes. Pour the tomato broth through a strainer, as this will help make the soup smoother and creamier. Season the potato soup with salt, pepper, and dried thyme leaves. Cover and cook over medium heat for 15 minutes. Serve the potato and leek soup, decorate with leek and accompany with bread, you will love it!
