Greek-inspired, this is for leek and lemon lovers everywhere. A tasty, full-of-flavor side to accompany a myriad of main dishes. Complements fried and/or grilled fish to a 'T.' Can use some of the tender green parts if necessary.

[email protected]I wasn't a big fan of this recipe. The leeks were a bit too strong for my taste and the sauce was too oily. I wouldn't make this again.
