A somewhat expensive recipe, certainly, but simple and easy to make and which will be appreciated by all your guests Turbot fillets cook fast, just five minutes per side in a hot pan. The leek and cream sauce with Jurançon wine is a Southwest classic that works equally well with sole or brill fillets. This dish relies entirely on ingredient quality.
