Reply:1/4 c. milk


4 fresh fennel or dill sprigs


1/2 tsp. salt


5 whole peppercorns


1 lemon, sliced


6 halibut steaks (6-8 oz. each)





CUCUMBER-YOGURT-MINT SAUCE


1 c. plain yogurt


3/4 c. finely chopped cucumber


1/2 c. chopped fresh mint


1/4 c. rice wine vinegar


1 tbsp. brown sugar


1 tbsp. white sugar





Fill a deep flame-proof pan, large enough to accommodate the all steaks, three-fourths full of water. Add the milk, fennel or dill sprigs, salt, peppercorns and lemon slices. Bring the poaching liquid to a low boil. Drop in the halibut steaks one at a time. When the liquid comes to simmer, lower the heat and let the fish simmer gently for 10 minutes. Drain the halibut and remove to a platter. Discard the poaching liquid. When completely cool, wrap fish in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours or overnight.


Prepare Cucumber-Yogurt-Mint Sauce: Mix all ingredients together in a glass bowl. Cover and chill. Makes about 2 cups.





At serving time, arrange halibut on a chilled platter and drizzle with the sauce. Garnish with extra mint leaves, if desired. Serves 6. Total precooking time: 40 minutes
