Back in Mula, cooking over the fire with a new delicious idea! 🔥 This time, I’ve thrown leeks straight into the flames. Yes, you heard it right! Peel away those outer leaves, and what’s left is pure magic—something you’ll be licking your fingers for! 😋 To make it even more irresistible, I drizzle homemade olive oil, add some sheep's cheese, freshly picked lemon from the tree, thyme from the garden, and a pat of butter. I also added freshly picked almonds from my garden, which I crushed with a hammer for that rustic touch! And, of course, don’t forget the garlic. If this isn't mouthwatering, I don't know what is! Did you know? The lemon tree originally comes from Asia, likely from the regions of Northeast India, northern Myanmar, and China. It was cultivated by humans for thousands of years, spreading through trade routes to the Middle East, North Africa, and eventually Europe. By the 15th century, it had become a staple in Mediterranean cuisine and agriculture. 🍋 Well, now you know! 😉 #FireCooking #OrganicIngredients #LeekLovers #HealthyAndDelicious #UnderTheSmokeOfAmsterdam #MulaSpain #CulinaryAdventure #OutdoorCooking #GardenToTable
