Throw in the potatoes, stock and wine, season lightly with salt and black pepper, and simmer for about 20 minutes.

In the meantime, wash and dry the cod steaks, and dredge them in flour with salt and pepper.

When the leeks have had their 20 minutes, melt some butter in a non-stick frying pan with a little bit of oil. When it's hot, put in the cod steaks and cook them over a medium-high heat for five minutes on each side. Keep cooking the leeks in the meantime.

Just before serving, stir a few tablespoons of cream into the leeks and check the seasoning.

Pile the creamy leeks onto the plates, and pop the cod steaks on top with a wedge of lemon.
