Gratins taste so good and can work well either as a side dish or a main course. This recipe goes well with a Sunday Roast Dinner, but can be enjoyed any day of the week ...
Ingredients
750g (1½lb) leeks, trimmed and cut into chunks
6 sticks of celery, chopped
400ml (14fl oz) vegetable stock
100ml (3½fl oz) half-fat crème fraîche
nutmeg, grated
25g (1oz) breadcrumbs
100g (3½oz) Gruyère, grated
Method
1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220ºC, fan 200ºC. Boil the vegetables for 5 minutes, drain and put in an ovenproof dish.
2. Mix together the vegetable stock, crème fraîche and nutmeg. Season.
3. Pour the creamy mixture over the vegetables, cover in foil and bake for 25 minutes, then remove and set aside.
4. Remove the foil from the vegetable dish and sprinkle with breadcrumbs and cheese. Cook for another 20 minutes until the topping is golden and crispy.

If you do not have any leeks, try using spring onions (scallions) or white onions instead.

Thanks for that tasty looking recipe!
That makes a great veggie dish. Or even a side. Happy new week to you.
I'm hungry already. I wish there was a way of turning your recipes into instant meals. Someone should invent such a machine like in Star Trek. We could say, "Jan's recipe Number X" and Voila!!!
God bless.
Gracias por la receta. Se ve muy rico. Te mando un beso.

That looks so inviting!
Oh this looks so good. Thank you for the recipe.
I'll eat almost anything "au gratin"! Yum!
This looks absolutely delicious. I like the use of celery and leeks! A perfect recipe to keep in mind for company. Thanks
That dish does look rather delicious!
I just can't stand celery.. even the smell.
But the idea of a gratin sounds good.
Looks interesting.
Even the title sounds good!
If it were not for soups and gratins we wouldn't eat much in the way of vegetables but as it is we happily eat them. In fact I planned a gratin for today's supper 💗
You always find interesting recipes
Looks tasty!!
This sounds so tasty....
I am not a big Au gratin fan, but it may be something hubby would like
Seguro que está muy bueno. Besos.
