Slit Sops¹⁴⁷

• 3 thick slices white bread, prepared as toasted sops
• 1½ lb/675 g

Quarter the white of the leeks lengthwise and cut into lengths of some 1 inch/2.5cm to enable them to be spooned up.

Simmer the leeks in the wine, oil and salt for 15–20 minutes until tender, then pour over the sops in a dish.
