Cheese And Leek Sauce
4 Answers
Hi,
I would like to make a cheese and leek sauce. I would usually start by making a white sauce and go from there but I don't have any flour.
Could anyone suggest a cheese and leek sauce using: Cheddar cheese, cream, stock, leek?
Thanks in advance

If you want a pouring consistency I'd sweat the leeks in a knob of butter until softened, add some stock and reduce for depth of flavour then add the cream and reduce a little, remove from the heat and add the cheese, stirring until incorporated, season to taste.
