The Welsh Tatin pie is a great comforting dish combining potatoes with another crop, often overlooked: spring leek. It was inspired by the national emblem of Wales: the leek, which welsh soldiers wear proudly on their hats on St David’s Day in the memory of a legendary battle that saw their army win over the Saxons over a field of leeks.
