preparation
1. Place the coal basket high in your DTB Grill and heat your cast iron pan on the fire.
2. Add the hazelnuts to the pan and toast them until they are nicely browned. Keep an eye on them; if they are going too fast, just lower the basket to prevent burning.
3. Once the hazelnuts are nicely brown, remove them from the heat and set aside.
4. Make sure the coal basket is high again and grill the leek until it is completely black and cooked. This not only gives a great taste but also makes for a beautiful presentation.
5. In the meantime, make the browned butter (Beurre Noisette): heat the butter in a pan until it turns brown. Then pour the butter through a sieve with a tea towel or napkin, so that you are left with a clear butter with a delicious nutty flavour.
6. Cut off the blackened part of the leek and cut the leek into pieces.
7. Pour the browned butter over the grilled leek and divide a few dots of truffle tapenade over the whole thing.
8. Chop the roasted hazelnuts into small pieces and sprinkle them over the leek for an exciting texture.
