Step 3
Meanwhile, spray a frying pan with some cooking spray. Add the leeks and cook over a medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring often so they soften but don’t colour. Pour the stock into the pan, bring to the boil and simmer until the liquid had reduced by about half, then stir in the cream cheese and crumble in the blue cheese. Stir, then simmer for a few minutes until the sauce starts to thicken.
