An upper-crust recipe for impressing your friends!

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease an ovenproof dish.

Trim off the green end of the leeks (only use the white and tender green parts) and cut them in half lengthwise, beginning at least 2 cm (1 in.) from the white tip. Wash them thoroughly in cold water.

Cook the leeks in a saucepan with boiling salted water for 2 minutes. Remove and drain on absorbent paper.

In a bowl, beat together the egg, yogurt, quark cheese and parmesan. Pour half of this mixture in the buttered dish and place the leeks in the dish in one layer, without overlaping them. Season to taste.

Cover with the remaining yogurt mixture and sprinkle with breadcrumbs.

Bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until golden brown.

Snack times best friend.
