Salt the fish fillet, drizzle with lemon juice, sprinkle with hot paprika, brush with oil on both sides, and cover and marinate for 15 minutes. Trim and wash the leek thoroughly, cut into thin strips, and sauté in oil seasoned with grated garlic (the leek strips should not become too soft or brown). Place the marinated fish on top of the leek strips, add water, broth, or white wine, and simmer the fish in the sautéed leek, covered, for about 15 minutes. Serve the leek with white bread or rice and a salad of sweet peppers.
