Leeks with hard-boiled eggs

This recipe for leeks with hard boiled eggs is very simple to make. What's more, when steaming, the vegetable is more flavorful and with all its properties.

This dish can also be accompanied by some cooked potatoes and so we will have a plate very complete to prepare a light dinner.

It is accompanied by a dressing made from melted butter. I do not particularly like it because I am not used to cooking with it, so I prefer to replace it with a jet of good olive oil or with a sauce like Mayonnaise o tartar sauce.

Also, if we do it in advance and let it cool, it is a good option for summer.
