Directions

Prep 20 minCook 30 min
  1. 1

    Cook the bacon until crispy, then thinly slice it.

  2. 2

    Trim the dark green tops and root ends of the leeks, then halve them lengthwise, leaving the root end intact. Rinse thoroughly under cold water to remove any sand.

  3. 3

    Place the leeks in a 12-inch heavy skillet, cover with cold water, add salt, and simmer uncovered until tender, about 15 to 20 minutes.

  4. 4

    Transfer the leeks to a bowl of ice water to stop cooking, then drain and pat dry with paper towels.

  5. 5

    In a pan, cook the sliced bacon in 1 tablespoon of olive oil over moderately low heat until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes.

  6. 6

    In a bowl, whisk together the vinegar, mustard, remaining olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste until emulsified.

  7. 7

    Add the leeks to the vinaigrette and gently toss to coat. Serve topped with the cooked bacon and parsley.
