Super quick and easy to make for a light supper or have it with crushed new potatoes or mash for a more substantial meal
Season the fish with salt and pepper on both sides then sprinkle each piece with curry powder on top and bottom.
Add the olive oil to a large frying pan, when hot add the cod and cook for 3 minutes. Turn the cod over and cook for another 3 minutes. Tuck the leeks all around the pan, top with pieces of the butter. Check that the fish is cooked – it should be flakey in the middle and remove to a warm plate while you finish the leeks.
Turn the heat to high, add the stock to the leeks with a generous pinch of salt and pepper, let them continue to cook for a couple of minutes then add the cream, let it bubble and thicken slightly.
Divide the leek noodles between 4 plates and top with the fish. Serve as it is or with mash or crushed new potatoes.
