Heat the olive oil in a frying pan. Season the John Dory fillets, pass through the four and fry on the skin for 3 minutes. Put in the oven for 2 minutes. Finish with butter and lemon juice. Next, prepare the leek fondue. Heat a pan with the butter and gently cook the chopped leeks for 5-7 minutes until softened. Add the curry powder and stir well. Stir in the wine and cook for 2 minutes. Season and pour in cream. Simmer for 5 minutes to reduce. Keep warm. Finally, prepare the lime and caper sauce. Zest and juice the limes and set aside.
