Leeks really show their versatility at Christmas time. Whether as part of a festive wreath, in perfect combination with chestnuts, as part of a delicious fish terrine or sumptuous beef wellington!

Ad | Ever tried crispy battered #leeks?
Try my beer battered leeks for @Britishleeks. Not only do they taste rather good, but they’re teamed with a moreish creamy leek ranch sauce that uses the whole leek, reducing food waste.

Happy St David's Day/ Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Sant hapus! 🏴 ✨
Welsh folklore tells us that the humble leek can repel evil spirits, alleviate childbirth pains, predict the future, protect in battle, even shelter from lightning.
A handy vegetable!
