Steps:
- Trim the darkest green part off the leeks and strip away the first two layers. Cut in half lengthways, but keep attached at the root. Wash the leeks under cold running water and set aside. Tip all the other ingredients, except the olives and parsley, into a wide shallow pan with 200ml water, some cracked pepper and a sprinkling of salt.
- Slip the leeks into the pan, cover and place over a low heat. Gently simmer for 20 mins, turning them occasionally until very tender - a knife blade should slip in easily. Leave to cool until just warm, then stir through the parsley and olives, if you like. Serve the leeks as they are with crusty bread or with roast chicken or fish.

FRIZZLED LEEKS
Steps:
- Cut leeks lengthwise into thin strips. Wash leeks and drain. Dry well between layers of paper towels.
- In a saucepan at least 3 ½ inches deep, heat 1 inch of oil to 375 degrees. Working in very small batches fry leeks (oil will bubble up quite high) until golden, about 10-15 seconds, transferring with a slotted spoon to paper towels to dry. Season leeks with salt.
- Leeks may be fried a day ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.
- Serve on top of soup.

GERMAN HAMBURGERS (FRIKADELLEN)
The original hamburger, these are served like a flattened meatball with some steamed string beans and salad. I also like to use this recipe to make Swedish meatballs (but omit the paprika). My Aunt in Hamburg, Germany taught me this recipe and I've been making them ever since. Serve with steamed string beans and tossed salad. Or serve on a Kaiser roll with lettuce, tomato, pickled cucumbers, finely sliced deep fried onions and curry ketchup.

BRAISED LEEKS WITH PARMESAN
My friend Elizabeth tells me that even people who think they don't like leeks like this dish. The leeks are braised in wine and water or stock until soft and golden, then topped with Parmesan and run under a broiler, so you get a crunchy layer on top of soft cooked leeks. One of the tricks here is to discard the outer layers that become papery when you cook them, so that the whole leek will be soft and easy to cut through.

Steps:
- Cut the ends and the dark green leaves of the leeks, and cut in half lengthwise. Place in a bowl of cold water for 10 minutes, then run under the faucet to remove any sand that may be lingering in between the layers. Peel off thick outer layers and discard.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a wide, heavy skillet that will accommodate all of the leeks in one layer. Place the leeks in the pan, cut side down, and cook, shaking the pan and moving them around with tongs, until they are lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Using tongs, turn the leeks over and cook on the other side until they are lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Turn the leeks back over so that the cut side is down. Peel off the outer layers if they are papery, as they will not soften when the leeks are braised. Pour in the wine and stir to deglaze the bottom of the pan, then add enough water or stock to come just to the top of the leeks. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes, until the leeks are thoroughly tender when pierced with a knife. Most of the liquid should have evaporated by this time. Meanwhile, preheat the broiler.
- Transfer the leeks to an oiled ovenproof pan if your skillet cannot go under the broiler. Using tongs, turn the leeks so that the flat side is up. If there is still a lot of liquid in the pan, pour it off. Sprinkle the Parmesan over the leeks. Place under the hot broiler until the cheese has melted and is beginning to color. Remove from the heat and serve.

FRIED LEEKS (GARNISH)
We like these on all kinds of burgers and fried or baked fish. And potatoes. And garlic bread. And beef. And mushrooms and other veggies. Or atop a salad. (OKAY, already, Sandi!) I have to make at least twice as much as I need to garnish a dish since I eat half of what I make while cooking. And why shouldn't I? I'm cooking! Be sure to stay close when frying leeks because they will burn quickly just to tick you off. The repercussions of an angry leek is just not something you really get over, you know?

BUTTERY LEEKS WITH PARMESAN AND THYME
Rather than sizzling on the stove, these leeks nestle into a roasting pan with white wine, vegetable broth, a few sprigs of thyme, and a scattering of cubed butter. An hour or so later, you shower them with nutty-salty Parmesan and slide them under the broiler for one last burnishing blast.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Trim dark-green tops and root ends from leeks and discard; halve lengthwise. Remove thick, tough outer layers (2 to 4 total, depending on size), discarding or reserving for another use. Thoroughly wash and drain leeks, keeping them intact. Arrange in a snug single layer, cut sides up, in a broiler-safe baking dish or skillet.
- In a small saucepan, boil wine 30 seconds. Add broth and return to a boil; season generously with salt and pepper. Pour mixture over leeks, then sprinkle with butter and thyme. Cover dish with parchment-lined foil.
- Roast 45 minutes. Uncover and continue roasting until leeks are very soft and broth mixture is reduced by half, 20 to 22 minutes.
- Switch oven to broil. Sprinkle leeks with cheese. Broil 6 to 8 inches from heating element until bubbly and browning in places, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve warm, with some of braising liquid.

- Steamed Winter Veggie Bowls. Steaming vegetables isn't the flashiest cooking technique, but it truly lets veggies become their best selves. Here, they get a little help from sherry vinegar, honey, and cayenne.
- Braised Leeks, Peas, and Lettuce. Braising may sound like a winter move, but this delicate spring braise will bring something fresh and nuanced to your table.
- Spring Greens and Leek Gratin. The contents of this cast iron skillet demonstrate the best way to eat your greens: with creamy, cheesy leeks, of course!
- Glazed Leeks With Pine Nut Salsa Verde. This is a great side dish to help you get to know leeks more intimately. They're brought to life with a nutty, herby salsa verde and spiked with a little honey-sweetened sherry vinegar.
- Leek and Potato Galette With Pistachio Crust. Few things go together as well as humble leeks, potatoes, and goat cheese. But the ground pistachios in the crust make this galette truly luxe.
- Leeks in Vinaigrette with Walnuts and Tarragon. If you want to show off that you know your way around a leek, make this riff on a classic leeks in vinaigrette.
- Spring Pea Fish Chowder. What makes this fish chowder sing is its leek backbone. Every bowl is fragrant with sweet alliums, and the broth is infused with their subtle flavor.
- Charred Leeks With Honey and Vinegar. Sometimes you want to burn your dinner on purpose. Alliums (plants in the onion family, such as leeks) are among the group of ingredients that really benefit from a good char on a grill.
- Chicken and Rice With Leeks and Salsa Verde. This one-skillet meal shows what leeks can do for chicken and rice, but it's the deeply savory anchovy-garlic-caper salsa, and the hit of lemon juice before serving that boosts this dish toward lift-off.
- Leek-Top Baking-Sheet Hash. This recipe highlights one of the most under-utilized greens: leek tops. If you're trying to get more bang for your buck and cut down on waste in the kitchen, keep this one in your back pocket.
