Sole, a delicate fish with a mild, sweet flavor, pairs perfectly with the tangy, aromatic flavors of tomato leek sauce. When steamed, the sole retains its moist, flaky texture, while the sauce infuses it with a burst of savory, vibrant flavors. Steaming is a healthy cooking method that preserves the nutrients and natural flavors of the fish, making this dish a delightful and nutritious choice for a well-balanced meal.

SOLE STEAMED WITH TOMATO-LEEK SAUCE
Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet with a lid over medium heat. Stir in the leeks and garlic, cook and stir 3 minutes until the leeks begin to soften.

Steps:
- In a microwave-safe glass casserole microwave the butter at high power (100%) for 1 minute, or until it is melted. Stir in the leeks and salt to taste and microwave the mixture, covered with the lid, at high power (100%) for 10 minutes, or until the leek is tender. Transfer the leek mixture to a saucepan and add the wine. Season the sole with salt and pepper and fold the fillets, skinned sides in, into thirds. Arrange the fillets in the casserole and microwave them, covered with lid, at high power (100%) for 3 minutes, or until they just flake. While the fish is cooking, boil the leek mixture until almost all the liquid is evaporated. Transfer the fish with a slotted spatula to heated plates and keep it warm, covered with foil. Add the fish liquid remaining in the casserole to the leek mixture and boil the mixture until the liquid is reduced by half. Add the cream and boil the mixture, stirring, until the sauce is thickened slightly. Season the sauce with the lemon juice and salt and pepper, spoon it around the fish, and garnish each serving with the parsley.

Steps:
- Place tomatoes in boiling water for about 10 seconds. Drain, and pull away skins; remove cores. Cut tomatoes crosswise and into 1/4-inch cubes.
- Heat olive oil in saucepan, add shallots and garlic. Cook briefly. Do not brown. Add tomatoes, ginger, cumin, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes.
- Place tomato mixture in a blender. Add 1 tablespoon butter, and blend quickly to a fine texture. Check seasoning; transfer to small saucepan and keep warm.
- Meanwhile, sprinkle fillets with salt and pepper to taste. Pour milk into a shallow bowl; put the flour on a dish. Dredge each fillet with flour, patting so flour adheres and shaking to remove excess.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place as many fillets in the pan as will fit in one layer without crowding.
- Brown fillets thoroughly on one side; turn, and brown on other side. Cooking will take about 2 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the fillets. Do not overcook.
- Divide tomato mixture equally among four warm serving plates. Place fillets over tomatoes, and keep warm.
- While the pan is still warm, wipe it out with a paper towel and return it to medium-high heat. Add the remaining butter, and cook until hazelnut brown. Add lemon juice, and pour equally over each serving. Top with basil or parsley.

- Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices to taste. For example, you could add a pinch of saffron, cumin, or paprika.
