500 g Porri
1 dl dry white wine
2 eggs
60 g grated parmesan cheese
1 dl fresh cream
100 g millet in grains
100 g white pasta atate
In the case of fondue:
40 g butter
400 g fontina
3 of whole milk
ground white pepper
4 yolks

Procedure:
Peel the potatoes, wash and cut into cubes; cook in boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain and transfer to a bowl.
Trim the leeks, wash them and cut them into rounds coarsely.
Brown the leek in a non-stick frying pan with 2 tablespoons of oil for 2 minutes, add the wine. Let it evaporate over a high heat, then bring to the boil, adding a little water, if necessary, and adjusting at the end of salt and pepper; at the end, take the leeks with a skimmer and drain them well from the cooking liquid. Transfer them to the blender and operate, blending everything; add the eggs, cream and parmesan, blend again, then salt and add the mixture in the bowl with potatoes.
Place the millet in a sieve, rinse under running water and cook in boiling water for about 15 minutes; drain, drain well and add to the zucchini mixture. Mix everything well, then transfer the preparation to a baking tray, lined with baking paper, and bake in the hot oven at 160 º C for about 35-40 minutes.
Meanwhile prepare the fondue. Remove the cheese from the crust, slice it thinly and place it in a saucepan with the milk on the stove for 1 hour; after this time, add the butter and continue cooking in a bain-marie for about 50 minutes, mixing with a steel whisk so that both ingredients melt. Add the yolks, stirring vigorously with the whisk, and cook for another 10-15 minutes, until you get a homogeneous and fairly dense mixture.
