Scrumptious layered cake slice garnished with fresh strawberry.

Method

  1. Start by prepping your all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, eggs so the cooking goes quickly.
  2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the leeks in a little butter until translucent.
  3. Add the danish and let it braised, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
  4. Fold in the kosher salt and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
  5. Add the cream and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
  6. Off the heat, brighten it up with toasted nuts and a final crack of pepper.
  7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
