INSTRUCTIONS
In a microwave-safe glass casserole microwave the butter at high power
(100%) for 1 minute, or until it is melted. Stir in the leeks and salt
to taste and microwave the mixture, covered with the lid, at high
power (100%) for 10 minutes, or until the leek is tender. Transfer the
leek mixture to a saucepan and add the wine. Season the sole with salt
and pepper and fold the fillets, skinned sides in, into thirds.
Arrange the fillets in the casserole and microwave them, covered with
lid, at high power (100%) for 3 minutes, or until they just flake.
While the fish is cooking, boil the leek mixture until almost all the
liquid is evaporated. Transfer the fish with a slotted spatula to
heated plates and keep it warm, covered with foil. Add the fish liquid
remaining in the casserole to the leek mixture and boil the mixture
until the liquid is reduced by half. Add the cream and boil the
mixture, stirring, until the sauce is thickened slightly. Season the
sauce with the lemon juice and salt and pepper, spoon it around the
fish, and garnish each serving with the parsley. Serves 2. Gourmet
