How to Make Potato Leek AuGratin

This is such a beautiful and delicious side dish. I love cooking with leeks. They're so light and many people who don't care for or can't easily digest onions, enjoy leeks.

Cleaning is important and I prefer to chop them then soak them in water for a few minutes to get all the sand out. Use the lighter root, not the leaves and buy more than you think you need, there is quite a bit of waste but they aren't expensive and very easy to find.

I made a version of this a few years ago and it was a pain to make with many steps but it was so good, I said I'd make the effort on holidays only. Well, I misplaced that recipe and have been on a search for another since.

This recipe is as good as that original one and it's much more simple. We have it often because it's so easy to put together.

Thanks for watching!
