    | 1. Wash the leeks thoroughly and trim of the very tough green tops and the woody base. | 2. Make sure you have some of the green as well as the white of the leeks. | 3. Cut the leeks into 1" diagonal slices. | 4. Put into a large saucepan and add the Chardonnay or white wine. | 5. Add the sugar and stir around. | 6. Bring to the boil, without a lid. | 7. Turn the heat right down, put the lid on and simmer very gently for about 5 to 10 minutes or until the leeks still hold their shape & colour, but are soft. (Cooking times vary on whether the slices are 1" or smaller/larger!). | 8. Add the creme fraiche, pepper & salt and mix gently. | 9. Serve with some chopped parsley as a garnish, making sure everyone gets some of the wine & cream sauce! | 10. N.B. Grated lemon is also very nice as a finishing touch, especially if you are serving it with fish. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
