Oven Roasted Leek Recipe

Have you ever tried making oven roasted leek recipe?

Don’t think that I only eat bread, brioche, cookies and potatoes ! Even if we eat at least one of these wonders a day at the moment… But I noticed that it was a good moment that I had not shared a plant-based recipe even though it actually represents the vast majority of our meals.

As for leeks, today I’m offering you a very simple recipe that we love to make at home: oven-roasted leeks.

We are truly in an in-between season with the first strawberries and asparagus and winter vegetables. So, it’s pretty good.

Coming back to my recipe of the day, simply blanch them in water or steam them, listen to them then quickly place them in a hot oven drizzled with a drizzle of olive oil.

Then you can spice according to your taste, for us it’s garlic powder, a little powdered spices (like chili or paprika), a twist of salt and a twist of pepper and that’s it.

You can even add a drizzle of lemon juice or grated parmesan. I like the little crunchy side that the leek tops take on…

You can then eat these roasted leeks as is or on a slice of bread with cheese (fresh cheese, goat’s cheese or a good burrata, for example), or even as an accompaniment to grilled meats or meat in sauce.

I also like to eat an egg with or a gribiche sauce.

In short, do as you wish, there is no shortage of ideas…
