Leek, Bacon & Potato Bake – Deconstructed
- 6 slices Rasher Bacon With Lotsa Fat, Coarsely Sliced
- 2 whole Waxy/new Potatoes, Cubed
- 1 stalk Leek, Large-ish, Sliced Thinly
- 1 whole Tomato, Deseeded And Cubed
- 3 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/2 teaspoons Pepper
- 1) Render the bacon, fry until the bacon is nice and crispy and dish out bacon bits while retaining the oil.
- 2) Fry the cubed potatoes in the bacon fat until nicely browned and cooked. Dish out into the same plate as the reserved bacon.
- 3) Now fry the leek slices on medium-high heat until they are caramelized (browned on the edges and soft). Keep the pan covered, stirring occasionally.
- 4) Once the leeks are soft, pour in the tomatoes and give it a few stirs. Minced garlic goes in next and stir-fry until fragrant but not browned yet.
- 5) Pour in the reserved bacon bits and potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Stir fry on high heat until everything is mixed and hot.
- 6) Serve!
- I'd serve this with rice, or replace the potatoes with cooked pasta towards the end of the cooking time. Or have both pasta and potatoes for a carb-loving meal.
