Ham and Leek Bake

Serves: to serve 2

Prep Time: 1 Minute

Cook Time: 12 Minutes

Ready In: 13 mins

Ingredients

2 medium-sized - leeks

4 slices - cooked ham

  - salt and pepper

  - white sauce

Directions

1. Trim the green leaves and the roots off the leeks and discard. Place the leeks whole into a pan of slightly salted water. Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes.
2. While they are cooking, make a white sauce and warm the ham slices a little - you can put them on a plate on top of the pan where the leeks are cooking or pop them in a microwave for a moment.
3. When the leeks are cooked, allow plenty of time for them to drain well (try to drain them vertically so the water runs out from between the layers). Cut the leeks into two equal lengths then lay one leek portion on each slice of ham. Spoon a little white sauce over and roll the leek in the ham slice. Spoon the remaining white sauce over the ham 'rolls' and add a twist of freshly-ground pepper. Serve while warm.
