Cheesy leeks & ham
3 comments
" Perhaps readers would like to try the French version of this recipe which is very good. Simply cook chicory in butter with pepper, salt and a pinch or two of sugar until cooked, then envelope each one with a slice of ham and cover with a rich bechamel (white sauuce) to which you have added grated cheese to taste and grated fresh nutmeg. I also add a large tablespoon of créme fraiche and the yolk of an egg. Bake at 180 (if you have a fan assisted oven) I use a mixture of Gruyère and Comté cheese. I find these have a milder flavour than Cheddar. Or you could use Cantal. "

"27 Février 2008 I would love to try this recipe but am not sure what to use in place of Philadelphi cream cheese. Living in France I have never seen this. Can any of you advise me. Thank you for the super recipes, they have really changed my daily menus."
