A fantastic sandwich, using the highly undervalued leek. That’s right. When is the last time YOU cooked with leeks? That’s what we thought. We made the rolls specifically for this sandwich, they have a center (which you can’t see on the photos) of pesto-infused dough. It was a grand experiment, but in reality they didn’t rise quite as expected. This was our best specimen of the lot.
Sandwich Recipe
(Makes 2 sandwiches)
- 1 roll
- 6 tbs crayfish salad
- 1 leek
- 1 tbs olive oil
- 1 garlic clove
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 6 fresh basil leaves
- 1 tomato
- Parmesan cheese
Sauteed leeks
Rinse one leek thoroughly (dirt get stuck real easy on the inside), and cut it into fine slices. Heat the oil on medium heat in a pan, and sautée the leeks until they become a little transparent and a little brown. Add the lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.
Assembling the Sandwich
Cut the roll in half and slice the tomato. Place two tomato slices on each half, and then3 tbs crayfish salad on top. Cover with the basil leaves and slices of Parmesan. Place the still warm sautéed leeks on top. Enjoy while warm.
