Dina Deleasa Instagram – This crab and leek sauté took me minutes to make and @bgonsar and I both loved it! We sat out in the deck and took a couple of minutes to eat together because Siena unexpectedly fell asleep after a visit to the pool.
It’s buttery and savory, it makes us wish we were at the beach! The simple recipe-ish is below.
Just as fyi- you have to wash leeks really well! Trader Joe’s sells a great shortcut with leeks already trimmed and clean.
