1

Put the two tomatoes (with skin) in the Thermomix or blender with 250ml of extra virgin olive oil seasoned with a bit of salt and xanthan gum. Blend and strain to create a tomato mayonnaise-like sauce.

2

Crush the pistachios together with the toasted garlic, but do not turn them into powder.

3

Vacuum seal the leeks with a bit of extra virgin olive oil and cook at 88º for three to three and a half hours; if you don't have vacuum bags, you can cook them on low heat (1) for two hours. After this step, grill them.

To plate, serve the leeks first with the salmorejo on top and finish with the crushed pistachios and toasted garlic.
