Leeks
Palustris:
We grow Musselwhatever for Winter and Spring use, but since we like leeks, cooked anyway you choose except with cheese sauce, we thought we would try the early ones to increase the season. Just had some more, stir fried with onions, courgettes, chillis, tomatoes, broccoli and cabbage. Oh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hugh_Jones:
What a way to spoil good leeks eric. How can you possibly taste them when you stir fry them with all that mixture. The delicate flavour of the leek should be complemented and cossetted with a rich and creamy sauce, not bludgeoned to death by frying it with onions and chillis. Shame on you.
Palefire:
Leeks definitely add that special flavour to a winter vegetable casserole with vegetarian herb dumplings - wouldn't leave them out of it. Haven't lifted mine yet, but they're nearly there - can't wait!

rick stein does a wondeful leek canneloni which we had this year made with leeks a friend gave us - we're not going to cook it again until we have our own leeks to out in it but by god was it good!
