discard tough green leaves. Wash well in several changes of water.

In a heavy skillet, heat olive oil. Stir in leeks & carrots. Cover &
cook very gently for 30 minutes, shaking the skillet occasionally.
Blend in the remaining ingredients in order. Cover & simmer for 30
minutes, checking the liquid. Add more water if necessary. When
fully cooked, it should be very moist but not watery. Serve cold with
lemon juice.
