Cut off tops of leeks, leaving 3 inches of green leaves. Cut leeks in half
lengthwise; rinse well, separating layers to wash out dirt. Cut leek halves
in long, thin slivers. Melt 3 Tbs butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add
leeks. Grate nutmeg generously over leeks; also grind a lettle pepper over
top. Cook about 5 minutes or until leeks begin to borwn, then turn and stir
leeks and grate nutmeg and pepper over them again. While cooking, melt
remaining butter in another skillet. Lay turbot out flat. Combine flour,
salt, pepper and parsley. Dust turbot evenly with flour mixture; add to
butter and cook, turning once, about 5 minutes per side until light golden
brown. Sprinkle chiles over fish; pour vermouth into skillet & quickly
bring to a boil; remove from heat. Arrange leeks spokewise on platter; set
turbot on top.
