Toasted Black Pepper with smoked paprika

Method

1. Start by prepping your soy sauce, sesame oil, fresh ginger 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 black pepper and let it toasted, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the olive oil and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Off the heat, brighten it up with chili crisp and a final crack of pepper.
6. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
