Leeks are boiled, cooled and dressed in a mustard vinaigrette to make the classic cold starter of French bistros. Simple and made from just a few ingredients, it brings a light opening to brunch plates and mid-morning snacks.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Boil the Leeks

12 min

Clean the white parts of the leeks and boil in salted water for 12 minutes, until tender.

2

Cool

10 min

Plunge the boiled leeks into cold water, drain, and let them come to room temperature for 10 minutes.

3

Make the Vinaigrette

5 min

Whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, mustard, salt and black pepper into a smooth vinaigrette.

4

Serve

3 min

Arrange the cooled leeks on a serving plate and drizzle with the vinaigrette to serve.

Reminder

Do not overcook the leeks; a fork should slide in easily without them falling apart. Dress just before serving, or the leeks release their liquid if dressed too early.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If you want more than a dessertspoon of mustard, increasing the vinegar by the same proportion keeps the dressing balanced.
