Trim the leeks, cut into pieces, and wash thoroughly. Drain. Meanwhile, heat the margarine in a saucepan. Sauté the leeks for 5 minutes. Pour in the stock and season with sugar, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Cover and simmer the vegetables for 15 minutes. Mix the coffee cream and cornstarch well in a shaker. Finally, add the cornstarch and cream mixture to the leeks, stir, and let it thicken. Season again with the spices. If it’s too thick, you can thin it out with a splash of milk.
