Leek Gratin, Leek Gratin
Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This leek gratin recipe is one of my own, having tried out a couple of different recipes I found online.   Out of the tests I did, I found it was definitely best to cut the leeks into chunks and to boil them for a short period of time before they're baked in the oven. I tried them cut into thirds and then sliced lengthways and put straight into the oven with the stock, cream and topping...not good!

The end result is lovely tender leeks baked in a flavourful creamy stock, with a cheesy crispy topping - a perfect side for a roast dinner, a beef pie, pork, chicken or lamb.

Tips

  • This leek gratin recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people – the photos are half the recipe (to feed 3 people).
