Leeks are great vegetables, but it's always frustrating throwing half of it away. So don't!
These make a wonderful crunchy addition when sprinkled over meat or vegetable dishes. They can be added to salads, or anything else that needs a bit of texture. They're also great in soups.
The link below includes a ton of more suggestions for how to use the ends of leeks.
Crispy Fried Leeks
Ingredients
Dark green leek ends
Directions
Cut the leek tops into small pieces and heat about 3cm of vegetable oil in a pot or pan, drop in one piece of the leek and when it ‘fizzes’ and floats to the top, add the rest. Don’t overload the oil with leek and fry them little by little. When they are golden brown, scoop out with a slotted spoon and leave to drain on a piece of kitchen paper.
Once cooled, store them in a ziploc in the fridge until ready to use.
