    Simmered Leeks,This is my favorite way to prepare leeks. You can eat it by itself or use as a topping for steak, chicken, or fish, and you can also add sliced mushrooms! Either way, it’s a delicious addition to dinner. (The companion recipe to this one is recipe #100417 – or you can add cabbage to this recipe to combine them!),We really liked this. Would have again. used bacon grease. I know but…,Yum! Great side to Asian Salmon- TigerJo recipe #103469. Next time I’ll make a double batch (it went fast). used olive oil with just a pat of butter, just enough to give it the butter taste. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe.
