Instructions

  1. Place the bacon fat in a frying pan fitted with a lid. Heat the pan on medium heat. Then add in the green beans, leeks, garlic, salt and pepper. Place the lid on the frying pan and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for 3-5 minutes then stir mixing all the ingredients together. Continue cooking with the lid on and stirring every few minutes for a total of 15 minutes (or the green beans are done to your likeness).
  2. Divide evenly among plates, and enjoy.

Notes

  • If you've never used leeks before, keep in mind they need to be cleaned very well. I recommend dicing and adding to a bowl of cool water. Then swish them around and pull the leeks out (don't pour in a strainer). The dirt will be in the bottom of the bowl. Repeat until the water is clear.
