How often do you cook leeks? I don't think too much.And if as a secondary ingredient it is sometimes included in the composition of certain dishes, then as the main ingredient it is used quite rarely. And for good reason. I have already published a recipe for leek and potato soup, and this time I will share a recipe for the perfect side dish for fish - leeks stewed in wine.
Remove the green part of the leek. Remove the outer layer. Cut off the tail, cut the stem in half and rinse under running water.
Finely chop the garlic. Cut the chili in half and remove the seeds. Finely chop half of the parsley and set aside until serving.
Melt butter in a frying pan. Add leeks, cut side down, fry for 1 to 2 minutes, turn over. Cook for another minute.
Add the garlic, chilies and the remaining 3 stalks of parsley to the pan. Cook for minutes, then pour in the wine, bring to a boil and cover.Reduce heat to low and cook for 12-14 minutes. *
Place the leeks on a plate, pour the sauce from the pan and sprinkle with finely chopped parsley.
Notes
From time to time lift the lid and check if the liquid is boiling. If it is boiling, add 50-70 ml of water.
