Directions
- Heat a large saucepan over medium. Add the bacon and cook, stirring, until crispy, 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Add the leeks to the saucepan and cook until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 2 minutes more. Add the milk and stock and cook until thick, 5 minutes. Season with salt and stir in the potatoes. Cook until the potatoes are soft, 12 minutes. Add the broccoli and half of the reserved bacon and cook until the broccoli is tender, 5 minutes. Stir in half of the cheese and season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls and top with the remaining bacon and cheese to serve.
