Mushroom And Leek Sauté

This mushroom and leek sauté is a wonderfully simple vegan dish that celebrates deep, earthy flavours and fresh herbs. By slowly cooking the mushrooms until they release their juices and then caramelise, you develop a rich, savoury base that perfectly complements the subtle sweetness of the softened leeks. The addition of fresh tarragon provides a sophisticated aniseed note that lifts the entire pan, making it a versatile addition to your plant-based repertoire.

Serve this quick vegetable sauté as a nutritious side dish alongside a roast, or use it as a delicious topping for sourdough toast or creamy polenta. It is a fantastic option for a midweek meal when you want something healthy and flavourful without spending hours in the kitchen. For a heartier finish, you could even stir through a splash of dairy-free cream or a handful of toasted walnuts.
