Steps to make Spiced monkfish:
  1. Monkfish needs firming up before cooking, otherwise it releases a lot of water whilst cooking. Sprinkle the fillets generously with salt, chill for at least half an hour then rinse off the salt and pat dry.
  2. Cut the fish into scallop-sized chunks. Mix the spices and salt together and dip the monkfish pieces in the mix.
  3. Melt the butter over medium-high heat, add the monkfish pieces, the diced shallot and ginger and cook for a minute. Sprinkle the saffron over the dish and turn the monkfish pieces over.
  4. Turn the heat up, add the crème fraiche and the stock and bubble away for another 1-2 minutes. Transfer to serving bowls or dishes and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve with plain rice.

Remove them from the pan and baste in the warm butter and a squeeze of lemon juice. Dust the monkfish fillets in the remaining spice mixture. Season the monkfish with the curry powder, cumin, salt and pepper. Heat a large frying pan and add the oil. Remove from the oven, place on the hob, and add the butter, water and a squeeze of lemon juice.
