Leeks, wine, butter? Whats not to love?

A side dish with a difference that I use often when Im cooking a nice leg of lamb or a juicy steak. Its simple and doesnt take long and is delicious.

Ingredients

1 cup of red wine
1/2 cup of chicken stock
3 leeks, white part only, trimmed, cut in half and then halved lengthwise
100g butter
1 tablespoon of picked thyme leaves

A simple dish you simmer the wine and stock in a pot together  till reduced by half. Add all the ingredients bar a teaspoon of thyme and and some salt and pepper. Cover the pot with a lid and simmer until the leeks are soft and the liquid has reduced again. Should take 15 minutes.

Thats it place in a bowl, check the seasoning and scatter more thyme. Enjoy
