- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- 1 cup sliced leeks (3 medium)
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 3 cups sliced fresh mushrooms, such as shiitake, button, or brown mushrooms
- 1 cup finely chopped carrots (2 medium)

- 2 tablespoons dry sherry (optional)

1. In a large saucepan heat olive oil over medium-low heat. Cook onion and leeks in hot oil, covered, for 13 to 15 minutes or until onions and leeks are tender, stirring occasionally. Uncover; stir in brown sugar. Cook and stir over medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes more or until onions and leeks are golden brown.
