The rana pescatrice, monkfish or anglerfish, is not a particularly attractive looking fish with its very large head. However, despite this, it has a very good flavor: Only the tail is eaten. It is almost boneless, and its flesh is white and soft, rather like lobster in taste and texture.

RECIPE INGREDIENTS

4 6-8 ounce monkfish fillets
7 ounces fava beans, shelled

2 ounces green beans, trimmed

1 green beet leaf, trimmed

1 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Salt

Monkfish with a Puree of Beans Recipe at Cooking.com

DIRECTIONS

Skin the fava beans. Blanch the fava beans, green beans and beet leaf in salted water for 2 minutes. Pound the vegetables in a mortar or put through a food mill or blender, adding the oil in a thin stream and beating the sauce as for a mayonnaise. Taste, and season with salt if necessary.

Broil or grill the fish fillets until just cooked through.

Spread the bean puree in the center of 4 heated serving plates. Place a monkfish fillet in the center of each and garnish with a tomato.
