Ingredients

3 Leeks
1 tbsp Salted butter
Salt (1 big pinch)
Black pepper (1 big pinch)
2 Garlic (Cloves, grated)
120 ml Double cream / heavy cream
0.25 Whole nutmeg (Grated)
20 g Cheddar
20 g Comté (For optional topping)

Steps

1
Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and add the salted butter.
2
Add the leeks, salt, and pepper. Cook for a few minutes, until the leeks have softened.
3
Add the grated garlic and nutmeg.
4
Pour in the cream and add the cheddar. Mix until the cheese has melted.
5
Serve the leeks as they are, or transfer them to a baking dish and sprinkle the Comté over the top.
6
For the optional baked finish, place the dish in the oven for around 10–15 minutes, or under the grill for a few minutes, until the cheese is melted and golden.

Notes

The source gives a choice to serve the leeks directly from the pan or finish them with Comté in the oven or under the grill. It does not specify an oven temperature.
