Asian Pear and Frisée Salad image

Juicy Asian pear and a balsamic reduction play against the bitter edge of frisée-further mellowed by leeks hot from the pan.

Provided by Melissa Roberts

Time 20m

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon packed brown sugar
2 medium leeks (white and pale green parts only), halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
