Olive Oil Leek
For me, the leek dish must be made with olive oil and must be kept in the refrigerator for 1 night so that it tastes good. Of course, in order to enjoy it, it should be taken out of the refrigerator at least 1 hour before serving.
My wife used to not have much to do with leeks, after 1-2 tricks I applied, she started to say that we should either buy a leek every 2 weeks and cook it.
I have some tips for you for this recipe that we all cook at home.
1- When choosing the leeks you will buy, make sure that their skins are not thick. Very large and thick leeks are usually cards.
2- Even if the carrot will sweeten your meal, add 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar.
3- Make sure to rest the leek dish you have prepared. Prepare it at least in the morning for the flavor to set.
4- The greaseproof paper that you will cover on the leeks while cooking will prevent your food from remaining in the steam and prevent the leeks from dispersing while your food is boiling. In this way, the taste and presentation will be better. (You can adjust the greaseproof paper size according to the pot lid size as in the photo.)

In addition to your recipe, I dissolved it in hot water and added lemon salt. It was unique. Thanks a lot for the recipe.
It was just the consistency I liked, I liked it very much, it was a very plain and simple leek recipe. On other sites, they add a lot of nonsense to the recipe or add so much water that it turns into a soupy consistency. Thanks.
Well done :) I'm glad you like it. Love…
I tried your recipe and it was delicious. Although I can't normally eat leek grains, I ate this dish with pleasure. thanks.
Good luck with your hands :)
thanks for your recipe. My father liked it very much, it was very tasty.
I've done it before, now I've done it again. it's going great. My wife fainted even though she didn't like leeks. anyway, for us ladies, it's enough for our wife to love :) I look at your site which dish I'm going to cook; because the recipes are very clear and always delicious. thank you very much.
I love the recipes here. Whenever I apply it, the result is amazing. I made the leek last night. It was unbelievably delicious. But I did not apply the wax paper suggestion because I am a fan of seeing the food while it is cooking, maybe it could be useful, I don't know, but the taste of the food is amazing. Be sure to try it. By the way, there is no mention of lemon in the recipe, it is impossible to have leeks. I squeezed a lot of lemons. Bon appetit.
Simply a perfect recipe. It is also practical and takes little time to prepare. Its taste is many times higher than the effort spent. For the first time, I am fascinated by a dish I make myself. Thank you so much…
I'm out of greaseproof paper, but I'll make this recipe right away :)
I'm making leeks for the first time after marriage. My wife will eat leek for the first time. Hopefully the result will be good. Thanks for the recipe..
i tried...
Hello.I'm trying to make it for the first time right now..I'll tell you when I taste it 0_o
Celery leaves are also very good. I advise :)
I HAVE NEVER MADE IT BEFORE AND I DON'T EAT IT BECAUSE MY WIFE WANTS IT. I'M WONDERING HOW IT WILL TASTE
I did and I was blown away. I'm doing it again today :)
I also add onions to leeks with olive oil, but it is not in your recipe. is there a reason for this? By the way, I'll try to use oiled paper so that the leeks don't fall apart, thanks for the tip :)
Since Leek Is From Onion Gils, When You Add It To The Meal, It Will Have Too Much Onion Taste, But You Can Add Garlic Half a Clove It Adds The Flavor My Mother Taught Me. Every Recipe of Ms. Nilay is Very Good. Recipes Net.
well, as someone who has never eaten or made before, I tried your recipe, it's cooking now, let's see what it tastes like :D :D
I was wondering what the result was (:
I made leek for the first time.) I never liked it when my mother was making it, but my mother used to make tomato paste… I made it myself with this recipe, I said, what a good thing this leek is :) thank you so much for the recipe…
Hello, should the water we add be boiling?
Yeah :)
Can I have the meat leek recipe please?
Thank you very much for the recipe.. I didn't have wax paper on it, I couldn't lay it on it, but it was still very nice. Thanks again.
I would like to add something to this recipe. If you squeeze 1 orange close to cooking, it will be much more delicious.
I can't understand how you close the greaseproof paper, I would appreciate it if you explain
Cut it to the size of the rim of the pot and cover it over the food. Then close the cover.
I will ask one more thing, you didn't use tomato paste, is there a reason why?
Or wouldn't chili paste be nice?
I wonder if the water we add should be hot :(
Hello Demet, we add cold water. Yours sincerely
I also add dill and lemon peel and cook it with half that and half lemon juice…the comments of those who eat it “I have never eaten such good leeks in my life, how do you do this”..try it :))
It was the best leek dish I've ever had in my life. Good luck to your hands, your language, your work. I realized that I couldn't make leeks before :) You are great, thank you very much :)
is it made without onions? This is the first time I will cook a dish without onions..
You don't need to put onions in leeks. They already have similar flavors.
This is the first time I've made something this beautiful. The tricks worked for a lot of people. It was great. Good luck to you. As usual, I have tried another of your recipes that keeps 100%. I'm your fan and I'm always following ;))
I don't quite understand the wax paper thing. But the warning that the leeks should not be too thick is correct.
I was in Iznik this holiday. I cooked according to your recipe and I brought real olives from Iznik.
I added the oil. I kept it in the fridge overnight as suggested. I took it out of the fridge.
He waited like that for an hour. Huh… Huh… It was delicious..
Come on, friends, to the table.. But on one condition… Your hands; tie my feet...
Enjoy your meal….
Hello,
I learned about the first leek I made from you and it was very good.
Thank you so much..
Good luck with your hands :)
Hello there. I wonder if the water we add boils?
no lemons?
You can put it last before serving.
That water was too much for me. I cooked it with a tea glass of water on very low heat, oh oh I couldn't get enough of it.
So you're saying that the only difference is water? :D that's how you thank me...
First of all, thank you for the recipe. I love leeks with olive oil. However, I have a request (both from you and from all the women who write recipes): please stop giving descriptions in vague / dubious / non-measurable units (until it turns pink, until it melts, you say a pinch, dark, etc., one gets confused). For example, you wrote water at the same level as leeks, and this leek is lighter than water, it floats. If I add 10 liters of water to it, it will be at the same level… Keep in mind, it's confusing.
It is delicious to add one medium onion.
Ladies, I cooked the leek from the recipes, if the lady doesn't like it, you have to withdraw from me :))))
your recipe is great, health to your hands, my suggestion is war, the juice of 1 orange adds flavor..
While making the leek, I add 1 onion, 3 carrots, 1 tomato, lemon juice, a bidet, a handful of chickpeas, 2 cloves of garlic, if it's juicy, you can put it in a handful of rice, I recommend it.
dear friends, if you put a couple of cloves of garlic in it, it gives a great taste, and I fry the leek in a small onion, try it, you will agree. Bon appetit.
Hello Nilay. Your recipe is very delicious. I also have a variant called this TASTE BOMB, which I added to this recipe with the addition of one small celery and five regular-sized Jerusalem artichokes. I would like you to try it. Love, may the health of your mouth and hands never deteriorate.
It looks good, well done Nilay lady. Does closing the greaseproof paper on other olive oil dishes give the same result? Good day.
I love leeks, especially when they look so beautiful and delicious. I'm suffocating now. I'll take it right away and do it myself. Good luck with your hands.
Ms. Nilay, your hands look very good. I also use wax paper, it gives really good results. Love…
If you like leek as a family, I squeezed 1 orange juice into it this week, I added bulgur as in celery, it's good if you want, try it...
I learned something new from greaseproof paper, thanks to Nilay, good luck, I'll try it :)
It is very beautiful, both its appearance and its taste, congrats to your hands
My dear Nilay, I am one of those who love leek very much, I love it..
A beautiful view..
Bless your hands dear..
Love…
Good morning. I love this state of leek. Well done. Love...
