2 Servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
2Eggs; beaten
15gramsButter OR- sunflower margarine
175gramsLeeks, cooked and chopped
½Canned pimento
1tablespoonSummer herbs (finely chopped)
6Black olives, stoned to garnish
Salt to taste

Directions

This very unusual pƒt‚, made with leeks, herbs and pimento, is lovely food. The distinctive flavours of the ingredients are not, however, overpowering - they are well balanced by the eggs, which bind them into a soft consistency.

Scramble the eggs in the butter or margarine until lightly set, then leave to cool on a plate. Liquidize them, with the leeks, pimento and herbs, to a pur‚e. Season to taste. Pack into a small dish, and garnish with granary toast.
