Notes
1. As a last resort, you can substitute the leek with brown or white onion.
2. Any good melting cheese will work. I highly recommend gruyere but because it is quite expensive here in Sydney, I often make it with ordinary tasty or cheddar cheese. I have also made it with goats cheese. All are delicious!
3. Cream - you can use pouring or whipping cream (but not whipped), full fat or light. Double cream is too rich.
4. As the soufflé for this recipe is turned out of the ramekin, make sure you grease the ramekins well. Now is not the time to worry about calories!
5. Ramekin size - 4 large (about 1 1/4 cup capacity, 8.5 cm / 3.5 inch diameter) or 6 small ramekins (3/4 cup capacity).
6.Nutrition Facts are based on serving 4 people, if you make 6 smaller ones, it reduces to 300 calories per serving.
