The velvety comfort of a leek and potato soup, given a flavour boost with a blend of mild spices and some aromatic, nutty celeriac. A tandoori naan, topped with nigella seeds, works so well as an alternative to normal croutons.

Melt the butter in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Fry the leeks for 6-8 minutes, or until soft and beginning to caramelise. Add the garlic and spice blend and fry for 1 minute more, until fragrant.
Stir in the potatoes, celeriac and stock. Bring to the boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 20-25 minutes, until the potatoes and celeriac are tender. Use a stick blender, or transfer to a blender, then blitz until smooth and velvety. Season to taste.
Meanwhile, make the toppings. Heat 2cm vegetable oil in a small pan and fry the leek for 1-2 minutes, until crisp. Use a slotted spoon to lift the leeks from the oil onto a plate lined with kitchen paper, then fry and drain the chilli and naan in the same way. Ladle the soup into bowls, scatter with the toppings and serve.
