We had four leeks to use up and, having discussed various things to do with them, decided on a sort-of gratin. It contained leeks, lardons, potatoes, cheese, creme fraiche, milk, nutmeg and salt and pepper.
It was really good, we had it with winter greens and I think we’ll have it again very soon.
Saute leeks for five minutes, add lardons and saute for a further five minutes.
In a separate pan, bring creme fraiche and milk to boil, add garlic, s&p, nutmeg and simmer for three minutes. Add sliced potatoes and simmer for further 10 minutes.
Butter pie dish.
Mix everything together in a bowl.
Spoon half of mixture into pie dish, add a layer of cheese, spoon remaining mixture into dish. Add final layer of cheese and some pieces of cheese.
Add more s&p and nutmeg.
Bake at 160 for 45 minutes, turn up to 180 to brown for further 20 minutes.
