Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Mmm, that sounds nice . I have often have leeks in my veg box and could do with something interesting to do with them . I'll have to wait 4 days for enough eggs though, we're only getting one a day at present . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 I do a very similar dish except I put it in all in a pastry case so it's a flan!!! Nice and easy to take a slice to work with me then! Louise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frenchtoast Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Sounds delicious! I think this mixture might be nice as a baked pasta dish - like a very posh macaroni cheese? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 My OH commented that it was just like a cheese souffle. I used to make them but they were such a faff . This is much easier (and nicer) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barkisland Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Thanks for this lovely recipe I made it last night, served it with gammon, and it was gorgeous. I reheated the remaining piece and had it for lunch with some salad and it was every bit as good as last night - similar to tortilla. I will make this often.

Lavenders_Blue Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Spotted this recipe in the 'what to do with leeks' thread. Made it for tea tonight and served with a green salad. It's DELICIOUS! I will definitely be making this again in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
