Meanwhile, make the sauce: In a small bowl Remove the baking sheet from the oven, toss the potatoes, then spread the leeks and lemon zest in. Add the leeks to the potatoes, and using the same pan in which you cooked the leeks, scrape up the brown bits at the bottom of the pan with a mix of cream, garlic, thyme and nutmeg, pouring that over.
