GARLIC FIDDLEHEADS

Serves 2

1/2 pound fresh fiddleheads
1 Tbsp butter
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 wild leeks
2 Tbsp chopped chives
2 tablespoons white wine

Steam fiddleheads just until tender. Meanwhile, heat butter in a heavy frying pan and sauté garlic and leeks until softened.
Blend in wine.
Add steamed fiddleheads, turning to coat them well in the sauce. Serve at once.

  1. Don't forget, though: fiddleheads can make you sick if you don't cook them properly.
