Add a subtle, sweet onion flavour to your meals with our fresh leek bunch, a popular vegetable in South African kitchens known for its tender white stalks and vibrant green leaves. Leeks are a versatile ingredient that enhances soups, stews, casseroles, and sautés with their delicate aroma and mild taste.
Fresh & Firm: Each bunch contains several long, crisp stalks with clean white bases and healthy green tops, carefully harvested for quality and freshness.
Mild, Sweet Flavour: Less pungent than onions, leeks offer a gentle, aromatic flavour that complements a wide variety of dishes.
Nutrient-Rich: Packed with vitamins A, C, K, and folate, as well as dietary fibre and antioxidants that support digestion, immune health, and overall wellness.
Versatile Culinary Use: Ideal for soups, stocks, quiches, stir-fries, and roasted vegetable medleys. The white and light green parts are most commonly used, while the dark green leaves can flavour broths.
Locally Grown: Sourced from trusted South African farmers, ensuring freshness and sustainable practices.
Slice and sauté with butter or olive oil as a base for soups and stews.
Add to casseroles and gratins for a subtle onion flavour.
Use the green tops to flavour stocks and broths, then discard.
Roast or grill alongside other vegetables for a tasty side dish.
Store leeks unwashed in a perforated plastic bag in the fridge. Use within 5–7 days for best flavour and texture. Trim roots and tough green leaves before cooking.
