Leeks n' Cream (with a secret ingredient)

Just like a mamma (didn't) used to make...

Ingredients

Leeks

Butter

Double cream

N**meg

Method

Boil a pan of salty water. Cut the leeks in three, then halve them, and slice lengthways to make 2 inch ribbons of leek. Add them to the water and boil for about 2 minutes.

Drain the leeks. Add to a buttery frying pan. Season heartily. Let them soak in the flavours for a few minutes. Add the cream to your liking.

Season again with salt and pepper if necessary. Grate a nutmeg over it cautiously.

Serve immediately. Ideal with chicken or any full-on, meaty flavour, like duck.
