Leeks are an ancient vegetable and have been grown in Britain for thousand of years. Ingredients:
6 leeks |
3 ounces butter |
4 teaspoons toasted breadcrumbs |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
salt |
Directions:
1. Clean the leeks by washing them in water and cutting away the tops of the green leaves and the roots. 2. Plunge them into a pan of boiling water and boil for 10 minutes. 3. Before removing, test to make sure they are cooked by piercing them with a knife. 4. Drain and place in a serving dish. 5. Melt the butter in a separate pan and cook until it sizzles and turns a gold brown. 6. Add the breadcrumbs, lemon juice and salt and pour over the leeks. 7. Serve immediately. |
