They melt down when cooked slowly and keep some bite in a quick stir fry. Sri Lankan cooks make a leeks curry and a leeks thel dala with dried chilli; they also go into soups, Indo Chinese fried rice and noodles, and omelettes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrim the root and the tough dark tops, then slit the leek lengthways and rinse between the layers, where soil hides.
