I will be doing this tomorrow to take with me round a friends for Sunday dinner. My mum used to make it just with a white sauce and grill some cheese on the top. Does anyone put anything else in / do anything differently, I just want to make it a bit more interesting... a bit of garlic maybe?

I usually make a cheese sauce with mustard in it (wholegrain looks nice) top it off with fresh breadcrumbs, grated cheese and finish in the oven and/or under the grill
bacon/pancetta/lardons or ham?
Hi Sazzy,

I know it's a day late but this one is lovely, maybe for future trying?

2 large leeks
55g Butter
2 cloves garlic cloves, sliced
200ml double cream
100g Stilton cheese
1 tsp Dijon mustard

1. Cut the leeks into 3cm batons and drop into boiling salted water; cook for 5 minutes. Drain and pat dry.

2. Melt the butter in a frying pan over a low heat, and soften the garlic for 1-2 minutes. Add the leeks and pour in the cream. Bring to a boil, and simmer for 10 minutes - by this stage the sauce should have thickened.

3. Stir in the crumbled Stilton cheese and Dijon mustard.
