Lemon and Dill Monkfish

The delicate flesh of this beautiful Lemon and Dill Monkfish is beautifully fragrant with fresh herb and citrus, and generously coated in a Hollandaise blanket, making it a tasty lunch! Happy Friday!

Ingredients (serves 3):

half a large lemon

4 fluffy sprigs Garden Dill + more for garnish

2 litres/8 cups water

1 1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

1/2 cup dry white wine (like Sauvignon Blanc)

a beautiful (about 395-gram/14-ounce) fresh monkfish tail

Dill and Schnapps Hollandaise, warmed, to serve

Cut lemon into slices, and add lemon slices to a large, deep skillet, wide enough to fit the fish. Add Dill sprigs and cover with the water.

Bring to the boil over medium-high heat, and cover with a lid. Allow to boil, for about 10 to 15 minutes, so the broth is fragrant. Season with coarse sea salt and black pepper.

Then, stir in Sauvignon Blanc, and lower the monkfish tail into the fragrant bath. Poach, about 10 to 12 minutes until cooked through.

Lift monkfish tail out of its court-bouillon, and drain before sitting onto serving tray. Drizzle generously with warm Dill and Schnapps Hollandaise, and garnish with reserved Dill sprigs.

Serve Lemon and Dill Monkfish immediately, with more Dill and Schnapps Hollandaise, steamed broccoli and a glass of chilled Sauvignon Blanc or other crisp white wine.
