1.
For the pastry: beat together the flour, butter, egg and salt to form a dough. If the mixture is too stiff, add a little water. Wrap in clingfilm and chill for 30 minutes.

3.
Roll out the pastry on a floured surface and line the tin. Prick the pastry all over with a fork, line the pastry case with non-stick baking paper and fill with rice or dried beans. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the paper and beans and bake for a further 10 minutes until golden and cooked through.

For the filling: heat the butter and oil in a frying pan and gently cook the leeks for 10 minutes, until soft.
