Step by step recipe

1	Prepare 4 leeks, but keep the white part whole (don't split or chop them) then slice them about 2 cm or 1 inch thick. Cut on the diagonal as this looks nicer (see photo).
2	Steam the leeks in a pressure cooker for five minutes, counting from when it starts to hiss.
3	The idea is to have leeks which ar only just cooked and which keep as much of their colour as possible.
4	Shell 2 hard-boiled eggs and chop finely once cold.
5	Chop the parsley.
6	Mix 150 ml french dressing (vinaigrette) with the chopped eggs and herbs.
7	Serve the sliced leeks, preferably warm, with the vinaigrette dressing poured over.

Remarks

For a richer dressing, use 2 yolks to one egg white instead of whole eggs.
You can vary the herbs using any you choose, not just the usual parsley.
