Cock-a-Leekie Recipe ingredients

To prepare this Cock-a-Leekie Recipe, first boil a young fowl until tender in 2 quarts of white stock. Take out the fowl and set to one side. Wash and cut off the roots and part of the heads of 2 nice bunches of leeks, then cut into 1-inch lengths. Put them into the broth, add 1/2 pound of boiled rice, add a little salt and pepper. Boil for half an hour. After cutting the fowl into neat joints, put it in the soup, let it boil up well, then serve at once. The soup can be served without adding the fowl.
