Found this German recipe on one of my favorite vegetarian websites. Leeks & apples go quite well together so I'm looking forward to trying this. When i do get to it, I'm thinking of adding a bit of fresh sage. Posted for the Zaar World Tour

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 large leeks, white parts only
2 teaspoons margarine (divided) or 2 teaspoons butter, preferably unsalted (divided)
2 large granny smith apples, cored and thinly sliced
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Return the leeks to the pan and toss together to combine.
  • Serve immediately.
