    I left the skin on and it was fine.

    Trim the leek(s) and slice thinly.

    chop fine, and saute in a little oil until translucent, then
  11. 11
    add cabbage and leeks (you will need a good-sized skillet or frying pan.
  12. 12
    I used a wok).

    Saute vegetables until tender and almost transparent, but not too flabby.

    There are several things you could do after this point.
  20. 20
    You could just
  21. 21
    serve it up right away, or you could put it into a baking pan, drizzle some melted butter or margarine on top, and put it in the oven to brown on top.
  22. 22
    Or you could put it into a baking dish, top with grated cheddar cheese, and put into the oven until cheese is bubbly.
  23. 23
    The third method is my personal favorite.
  24. 24
    prepare a Celtic recipe using a wok?
