  The leek and mustard vinaigrette was very straightforward and absolutely delicious. Unfortunately I couldn't find the ham or cheese, but used serrano ham and didn't use a cheese as I don't particularly like mozzarella and I think the vinaigrette would drown it. I will certainly do the vinaigrette again as I can think of all sorts of things it would fit very well with for a starter.

  Easy, tasty way to do leeks as a salad which we had with chicken and other salads.
