Step by step recipe

1

Cook the leeks in 2 stages

Clean and peel 500 g leeks. Instead of slicing straight across, cut them on the diagonal.

2Steam the leeks: the best way is to use a steamer basket so they sit just above the water, not in contact with it, and put the pan on high heat.Steamed leeks with morel sabayon : etape 25
3Cook uncovered and keep an eye on both their texture and colour - they should stay nice and green and still have a little "bite".

Please note that we don't salt them when steaming.

4Melt 30 g butter in a large frying pan on medium heat. When sizzling, add the leeks, salt and pepper and cook in this second stage for just 2 or 3 minutes, stirring frequently.

Check the seasoning, then keep hot.

Prepare the morel sabayon

Put the 6 tablespoons mushroom "jus" (preferably from morels) into a bowl over a bain-marie. Add 2 egg yolks, salt and pepper.

Remarks

Of course, if you have jus from another type of mushrooms, this will also work well.
For a more delicate flavour, replace 1/3 of the mushroom jus with the same volume of Vin Jaune - it's superb! (if you like Vin Jaune, that is...).
