Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 10 min.

Prepare and thinly slice ½ shallot.

Prepare and thinly slice 1 leek.

Stage 2 - 1 min.

Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a frying pan on medium heat. When good and hot, add the sliced shallot, salt and pepper.

Cook for 1 minute without colouring.

Stage 3 - 8 min.

Add the leeks and cook uncovered, stirring gently, until they are just tender.

Only add salt at the end of cooking.

Set aside.

Stage 4 - 20 min.

Prepare 150 ml Scrambled eggs (Oeufs brouillés).

Stage 5 - 1 min.

When just done, take off the heat and add 50 ml smoked cheese...

Stage 6 - 2 min.

...and mix until fully incorporated.

Stage 7 - 7 min.

Prepare 2 slices thin toast.

Stage 8 - 4 min.

Spread a generous layer of cheesy scrambled eggs on each slice.

Stage 9 - 4 min.

Top with the shredded leeks and serve immediately.

Remarks

For the bread, I recommend a rustic type, such as sourdough or seeded.

If you don't have smoked cheese, a normal cheese will do just fine (Comté, Cheddar...).

If you don't have time to make scrambled eggs, a small omelette will work instead.

Keeping

Should be eaten right away.
