Sautéed Mushrooms and Leeks with Ginger Soy Sauce

Ingredients

• Olive oil

  1 tbsp or 14g

• Leeks

  raw

  2 cup or 178g

Directions

1. Place a large skillet over medium heat and let it preheat until hot.

3. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté with the leeks until both are tender and lightly browned in spots, about 5 minutes.
4. Sprinkle in the ground ginger and black pepper, tossing to coat the vegetables evenly.
