Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of salted water to a
boil.
Add leeks and cook for 10-15 minutes or until tender. Drain; when
cool, squeeze out excess water and set aside. Combine eggs, bread
crumbs and Parmesan cheese in a bowl. Stir in leeks and season to
taste with salt and pepper. Pout 2 tablespoons of the oil into an
8-inch baking pan and swirl to cover. Spread the leek mixture evenly
over the bottom. Sprinkle remaining olive oil on top. Bake for 20-30
minutes or until golden. Cut into squares.
