This recipe tasted great Honni and the sauce was wonderful and creamy. I couldn't really see how 2" slices of leek with only a few minutes cooking time was going to work, so instead I finely diced the leek.

<p>I am 51, retired, married for 32 yrs to the love of my life, Phillip. We have a son 29 & daughter 27 as well as 2 dogs, Basil and Gus. <br />Recipezaar can be detrimental to your housework. I think of myself as an old fashioned cook, I serve the sort of food you would find at a country pub, (meat, veg, potatos and lots of lovely gravy or sauces), all very detrimental to my waistline. So you get the picture, middle aged, oveweight housewife, sitting at dust encrusted PC surrounded by 2 (very spoilt)fluffpuppies. <br />I love to sew, crochet, cross stitch, read (thrillers, biographys). I have a weakness for china and delftware.I have a house full of stuff but have yet to collect the find of the century. I have recently discovered the art of quiltmaking. I love this new craft and hoping to master the techniques required to make lots of beautiful quilts. Todate I have made 2 mediocre ones and one not so mediocre. Practice makes perfect. (13.10.2006 ETA I have now made 13 quilts and am currently working on 14, 15,and 16)I am getting better. <br /> <br />My Zaar Review Criteria. I will not review a recipe unless I have tried it myself. <br /> <br />5 Stars = Exceptional, would feed it to other zaar members.You know the type you would rave about. <br />4 Stars = Very good, would feed it to my friends <br />3 Stars = Good, would feed it to my family,but not often. <br />2 Stars = Would feed it to the dogs. <br />1 Stars = Would think twice about feeding it to the dogs.</p>
