Preparation

Step 1

Whisk shallot, lemon juice, vinegar, and mustard in small bowl to blend. Gradually whisk in oil. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.

Trim root end of leeks, leaving core intact. Remove any tough outer leaves. Cut each leek in half lengthwise.

Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Add leeks; reduce heat to low and simmer until leeks are soft, about 12 minutes. Drain. Arrange leeks on platter. Spoon 1/2 cup vinaigrette over; let stand until leeks cool, about 1 hour.

Add apple to remaining vinaigrette. Divide leeks among 8 plates. Spoon fish over leeks. Top fish with apple mixture and serve.
