Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Put the stock in a large pan, bring to the boil, then add the potatoes and the leeks. Bring back to the boil for 5 mins, then drain well, reserving the stock in a jug.

  • step 2

    Meanwhile, butter a large baking dish. Layer up the potatoes and leeks higgledypiggledy, seasoning as you go, then scatter the bacon over the top. Season well, pour over 200ml of the reserved stock, then spoon over the cream (if using) and cover with foil. Can be made up to 1 day ahead and chilled. Bake for 40 mins, uncovering halfway through so that the bacon crisps.

I put a runny Camembert cheese I found in the fridge in the centre of this dish and grated Comte cheese over the top. It was delicious!

Lovely and easy to make, took me a little longer than expected. I also added cheese ( cheddar and mozzarella). Going to add garlic next time!

Garlic should be a ‘no brainer’ anyway. The only time I don’t eat it is before lunch..! For heart & health, black, steamed, boiled or baked, half a head in every meal, cut in half, salt & pepper, olive oil, baked with a roast or wait for 5 hours with a shoulder of lamb, can’t lose….!

Hi, thanks for your question. You can freeze once assembled but before baking. Defrost in the fridge overnight then bake as per the recipe. We hope this helps. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.
