Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 and boil the kettle. Place the leeks in a single layer in a large saucepan and add enough hot water from the kettle to cover. Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 5 mins until the leeks are just tender.
- Lay 2 slices of ham, overlapping, on a board, then sit 2 leek halves at one end. Wrap up, repeat with the other leeks, then place the parcels in a small ovenproof dish.
- Mix three-quarters of the cheese with the crème fraîche, then season and spoon over the parcels. Mix the remaining parmesan with the breadcrumbs and scatter over the top. Bake for 15 mins until the cheese is golden and bubbling. Serve with a green salad and crusty bread to mop up the sauce.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/fan180C/gas 6. Cook the leeks in a pan of boiling salted water for 4-5 mins or until just tender. Drain and cool under a cold tap to stop them from cooking any further, then drain again well and pat dry on kitchen paper.
- Wrap each leek in a slice of ham, then arrange, side-by-side, in a large baking dish. Mix the cheddar in a bowl with the Dijon mustard and crème fraîche, until well combined. Season to taste. Spread over the leeks, then bake for 15-20 mins until bubbling and golden brown. Serve at once with plenty of crusty bread to mop up the juices.

- Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a saucepan. Add flour, stirring with a wire whisk. When blended add milk, stirring rapidly with whisk. Add salt, pepper, nutmeg and cayenne and blend. Simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add egg yolk, stirring briskly.
- Heat the remaining tablespoon butter in a skillet. Add leeks and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook briefly, turning to heat evenly. Place each leek on a slice of ham, at an end.
- Carefully roll the ham up to form a roulade.
- Sprinkle shallots in the bottom of a baking dish measuring 11 by 8 inches. Place the roulades close together in a row. Spoon sauce on top and sprinkle with cheese. Bake 10 minutes or until hot and bubbling and nicely glazed on top.
