hi fokes i met with me trawler friend and he was so good to give me lemon soul, monk fish tails, better knowing as john dory, or monk angler fish, so im going to have a nice meal tonight with the wife, aney tips on best way to cook them, im spiled for choice,

happy days ................................

i find best results is to fry them just dip the fillets in flour and fry for about 2 or three minutes each side and the monk same thing but cut it into small chunks like a chicken nugget very tasty .enjoy

There is a fantastic Rick Stein recipe for John Dory. Can't remember it off hand, but... Marinade the fillets in lemon juice for a couple of hours, then cook them on a smoking hot griddle.

nice bit of fish enjoy but monk and dory are two different types of fish a quick search on google or yahoo will give ya millions of top class recipes

[saving private brian]

yes the dory and monk are different.you can make scampi out of the monk tails thou

[donal domeney]

And worse still to add to the confusion you Monk is more than likely an Angler fish

[chuckaroo]

And worse still to add to the confusion you Monk is more than likely an Angler fish

but the angler fish tail tastes bloody great!

and just to confuse things a little more.. true scampi is actually the crustacean Nephrops norvegicus, also known as langoustines or Dunlin Bay prawns
but they aint prawns (or monk/angler fish) at all really, they are actually a species of small lobster................
thanks

Nice bit of fish,


Try this if you like a nice clean taste to your fish, will work with either i prefer it with the monk

Poach your fish in coconut milk for 6 or 7 minutes ,add coriander and serve with rice covered with lemon/lime juice..

( I use the canned coconut milk it think its by blue dragon and its not expensive)


Its a lovely fresh clean taste..... if you like coconut and coriander.........


Enjoy it ,whatever way you have it
