2  bay leaves
some nutmeg, freshly grated

Preheat the to 200°C.

Make a roux, using 30g of the butter,melt this in a saucepan, add flour and cook for 1 minute (a roux can be used to thicken any sauce).

Pour about 375-400ml of the cooking liquid into the roux stirring al the time. Season the sauce with pepper and nutmeg.

Place the leeks in a oven-proof dish and cover with the sauce.Melt the remaining butter in a small saucepan until it starts to bubble up, add the breadcrumbs and brown all over.

Sprinkle the crumb/butter mixture over the dish. Place in the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the twine and serve immediatly.
