Remove from oven, place leeks on the rice and arrange whitefish on top, skin side up. Give a turn of the peppermill. Cover and replace in oven for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, combine remaining clam juice, lemon juice and mustard in a small saucepan and place over medium heat on the stove. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half.

Spoon a little sauce over the fish and serve the remainder on the side.
