  • butter
  • leftover mashed potatoes
  • cheese anything you have around that needs using

Method

  • Wash and chop the leek, then let it cook in a generous amount of butter, covered with a lid and a piece of wax paper if you wish, until soft.
  • Season with salt and then scoop into a shallow ovenproof dish.
  • Tip the mashed potatoes on top of the leeks.
  • Level them a little without packing them down too tightly.
  • Dot small knobs of butter over the surface, cover with grated or crumbled cheese, then bake in a hot oven until the cheese has melted and the potatoes are heated through.
