- 2 punnets 200 g Woolworths baby leeks, washed
- 1 1⁄2 cups cream
- 120 g pecorino, grated
- 2 T butter
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 slices ciabatta, torn into small pieces
- salt, to taste
- crushed green peppercorns, to season
Cooking Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the leeks in an ovenproof dish and pour over the cream. Add the cheese, butter, thyme and ciabatta. Season with salt and pepper.

Chef tip: Tenderstem broccoli or asparagus also works well here. Add blue cheese to make it special.
