Cheesy Leeks and Beans Bowl with Soy-Glazed Mushrooms

This dish is peak cosy comfort: sweet, slow-cooked leeks, butter beans folded into a silky cheesy tofu sauce, and golden soy-ginger mushrooms on top for extra flavour. It’s high-protein, creamy without any cream, and the perfect weeknight bowl with crusty bread.

I can only describe this as a bowl of goodness 🤩 I never have leeks, so decided to test it with spring onions. It was delicious! This cheesy sauce is fantastic!

Gorgeous. Made in less than 20 minutes, best dinner idea that is still fancy (I mean look at that plate!) Thank you Gigi for such wonderful recipes. I'm doing your tofu this weekend ♥️

No butter beans in local supermarkets so I used cannellini. Also only had smoked tofu. Still fab.

Great improvisation! Cannellini beans are a perfect sub - they have the same slightly nutty flavour and a smooth texture that works great in bean bowls like this! xxx

Delicious. We used dark miso paste and chickpeas instead of butty beans, so the colour is different, but it's really amazing

Hi Valerie! I usually drain most of the liquid from the beans, I don’t use all of it because it can make the dish a bit saltier than intended. But if you prefer to keep it in, you absolutely can, it might just need to simmer a little longer 😊
