Because everyone loves toast, especially the famous Italian bruschetta, we propose today a vegetarian variation of this famous specialty. Here is an easy recipe for leek bruschetta.
Here are the ingredients needed to make leek bruschetta for 4 people:
4 leeks
2 tablespoons of olive oil
4 large slices of country bread
4 extra-fresh eggs
2 tablespoons of fresh cream
50 g grated cheese
salt and pepper
In this leek bruschetta recipe, the most time-consuming step is preparing the leek compote.
I recommend making it ahead of time and freezing it for future recipes.
1- Wash and sort the leeks carefully to remove all the sand.
2- Remove the hardest green leaves, then finely chop the white of the leeks and the soft green parts.
3- Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan and fry the sliced leeks over medium heat. Season with salt and pepper.
4- Lower the heat and cover the pan. Let the leek stew for at least 30 minutes, adding a little water if the leek stew clings to the pan.
