Step by step recipe
Stage 1 - 1 min.
Place leek in front of you.

Cut off roots.
Stage 3 - 1 min.
Trim off ends of leaves, leaving about 4 cm or 2 inches of green.

Remove outer leaves, usually dry or wilted, by pulling downwards.
Stage 5 - 2 min.
Split the top in two lengthways, starting at 7-8 cm or 3 inches from bottom (white).
Stage 6 - 2 min.
Turn and cut again, so that the top part is split into four.
Stage 7
The top of the leek will now be like a tassle, making cleaning easier.
Stage 8 - 15 min.
As with all muddy vegetables, leeks should be soaked for 15 minutes in warm water, so that all the particles of earth are loosened and leeks can be cleaned easily.
