Main Ingredients

Curry Vinaigrette

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cucumbers

    Slice the cucumbers thinly and place them in a bowl. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and let them sit for 10-15 minutes to draw out excess moisture.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Curry Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, curry powder, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Cooking the Monkfish

  1. 3

    Coat the Monkfish

    Pat the monkfish fillets dry with paper towels. Dredge each fillet in buckwheat flour, ensuring they are well coated.

  2. 4

    Fry the Monkfish

    In a deep skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the coated monkfish in the oil and fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Serving

  1. 5

    Plate the Dish

    On each plate, arrange the fried monkfish, top with the sliced cucumbers, and drizzle generously with the curry vinaigrette. Serve immediately.
