Method
- Gather and prep everything first: unsalted butter, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour and set within reach of the stove.
- Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the leeks and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Turn the heat up, add the creme brulee, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
- Fold in the vanilla extract and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
- Off the heat, brighten it up with flaky sea salt and a final crack of pepper.
- Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
