Recipes from Gibraltar |
Stuffed Leeks
Country: GibraltarCourse: Side
Makes: 6 to 8 Servings
Ingredients:
- 2 slices smoked bacon, chopped
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 3 large leeks
- 1 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1/4 cup shredded cheese (I used cheddar)
- about 2 tbsp flour
- 1 large potato
- Cut your leeks up into cylinders about two inches in length. Carefully push out the center layers of the leeks, leaving the outer two layers intact.
- Chop up the center bits of your leeks and saute them with the onions, bacon and butter until soft (note: you'll probably have more leek than you can use). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Mash the potato wedges and add them to the pan with the milk and cheese. Add enough flour to make a sticky paste.
- Stuff your leek tubes with the filling you just made. Cook at 350 degrees for five or 10 minutes, or until the filling starts to turn a little golden on top.
