Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons butter
6 leeks - white and light green parts only, halved lengthwise and sliced
1 cup water
½ cup white wine
⅓ cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir leeks just until softened, about 8 minutes. Pour water and wine into skillet; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until leeks are very soft, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove cover, increase heat to high, and cook leek mixture, stirring constantly, until liquid evaporates, about 8 minutes. Reduce heat to low; stir cream into leek mixture. Cook leeks, stirring, until mixture begins to thicken; stir in Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
