Method

Trim leeks, split and wash between layers. Slice three into half-moons and one into thin strips; dry strips thoroughly.
Chop garlic and soften in a casserole with 45 ml oil, cayenne pepper and sliced leeks for 10 minutes. Remove cayenne pepper.
Add saffron and flour and stir for one minute. Pour in wine and boil; add stock and simmer for 20 minutes. Blend until smooth.
Fry leek strips in batches in extra oil until golden. Drain on kitchen paper and season.
Season hake with salt and black pepper and brush with 15 ml oil. Cook on a griddle for 3–4 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until cooked.
Spoon leek cream into four plates. Add fish and top with crisp leeks and parsley.
