For simanim, I always just sauté leek and call it a day. What do people do that is not:

- a patchke
- soup
- does not require caramelizing (I don't have time for that)
- have beans

I’m making brisket with apples and leeks (don’t remember where the recipe is from but I can probably find it)

I've seen recipes for braised leeks, which definitely is less labor than sautéing/ carmelizing but I've never personally tried it so can't speak to the results.

I know someone who makes it with scrambled eggs... But I'm not sure if she sautees it first?

Everyone I know makes leek patties. It tastes kinda like an omelet with leeks.

Do you have a recipe for a leek pattie?

ETA - Thanks to google and Jamie Geller, I found one.

We mix them in with the potato kugel instead of onions, and spread a layer on top so that it is distinguishable for the יהי רצון.

ETA You can bake it as muffins or mini-muffins to serve separately for the simanim, then serve the kugel as you regularly would.

We slice thinly and serve sprinkled with salt.

Otherwise you can just throw it into whatever you are cooking (roast, fish, vegetable side, etc).

A lot of people I know throw it into the chicken soup. Zero extra work .

I've had salads with (raw) leek that are really good. Can't remember exactly what was in it but I can imagine hearts of palm, avocado and cherry tomatoes going well.

I use the pattie recipe and bake it into a kugel
Then slice squares
BTW - I did the same with the Swiss chard (we use spinach) and the butternut squash
I’m lining up the squares on a platter
It will look so pretty

Potato leek soup or roasted chicken on a bed of (very well washed) leeks.

Roasted yummmm
Just slice and un-nest them and wash well. But roast whole if that makes sense.

I also saute them in oil, sprinkle with salt and eat. YUMMO.

I don't understand why everyone makes it so much more of a patchke.

I also bake the carrots and gourd (kabocha squash) with oil, salt, and eat straight up. A few pieces for the Y"R. That's it.

Anyone else for braised leeks? Sounds interesting but I like referrals from humans better than google.
