Directions:
- Cut the leeks crosswise into 2 inch lengths, then in half lengthwise; wash very well.
- In a large skillet, combine leeks, oil, and carrots over medium high heat, stirring gently occasionally, until the leeks are slightly softened, about 10 minutes.
- Add stock or water, sugar, salt and pepper to taste, cover, reduce heat to low and simmer until leeks are very tender, about 30 minutes.
- Stir in lemon juice and olives and continue to simmer, but uncovered, until liquid thickens slightly, about 10 minutes.
- Allow to cool to room temperature, about 45 minutes; stir in parsley, taste and adjust seasonings.
