ReplyDeleteWe usually havent anything to accompany this dish, but I think rice works!
DeleteI love leeks; they give better taste to any dish. Have a good weekend Elpiniki!

Deletelovely:D in the absence of oregano and tomato sauce, this would have passed off very much like a chinese stir fry of leek and pork.
