Leek Compote Recipe - Cooking Index
4 lbs | 1816g / 64oz | Young leeks |
Butter - for greasing pan | ||
1/2 cup | 118ml | Olive oil |
2 teaspoons | 10ml | Salt |
2 teaspoons | 10ml | Granulated sugar |
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Clean the leeks (watch out for the sand), get rid of the tough green parts and the roots, and cut the leeks into 1/4-inch slices.
Butter a pan, spread the leeks out about an inch thick in the bottom of the pan, drizzle the oil on them, and sprinkle with the salt and sugar. Roast them in the oven until they're a creamy gold about 45 minutes to an hour.
Remove them from the oven and let cool. Spoon into dry, sterilized jars with lids. Cover and store in the fridge and they'll last about two weeks.
