Method
1
Begin by trimming the leeks: cut off the root end and the dark green leaves, keeping only the white and light green parts.
2
Slice the leeks lengthwise and then chop into rings.
3
To clean, place the chopped leeks in a bowl of water, swish to remove dirt and sand, then lift out and drain well.
4
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
5
Add the cleaned leeks and sauté for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.
6
Season with salt and pepper.
7
Continue cooking for another 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the leeks are tender and translucent.
8
You can add water or broth if needed to keep them moist.
9
Remove from heat and let cool slightly before using or storing.
