leeks

shallot (minced)

olive oil

salt

black pepper (to taste)

Prepare and cut leeks - To cut and clean the leeks, cut off the root and the dark green stems, which you can save for stocks and soups. Remove the tough outer layer, then cut in half to cut into half moons or leave as-is to cut into rings. Slice the leek stalk into quarter inch slices. Fill a large bowl with cold water and add the leeks to the bowl. Use your hands to agitate the leeks and remove the dirt.

Cook shallots and leeks - Add oil and butter to a large skillet or braiser on medium heat. Add shallots and leeks and cook on medium for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

This was my first time cooking with leeks. When I try a new ingredient, I make it a point to use a simple recipe so I have a good idea of the ingredient's flavor profile. This recipe seemed like it'd fulfill the goal and it certainly did. I'm glad I didn't have to search long for a good leek recipe. Thank you!

I have been sauteeing leeks in butter for a long time. But the addition of olive oil,garlic and lemon juice make them so yummy!
Thank you😋

Delicious side dish to our dinner of Lamb chops.  Served over rice  as a wonderful complete meal.

I love simple recipes like these that highlight fresh produce beautifully. So easy to make and so good.

This sautéed leeks recipe is so useful!  I love making this recipe as a base for my other recipes such as soups, braised meats, and stews.  So many great cooking ideas in this post.

This was really easy and delicious. I mixed the leeks into cooked pasta with a little pasta water - wonderful! Great way to prepare leeks that isn't just soup.

I loooooove leeks but had no idea that they were so easy to prepare! I'm going to be making these buttered leeks often because they're delish!
