I did a slight variation on this recently and it was lovely.

OMG, How can you batter Monkfish.....!!!! Hope that was a joke.
I know you didnt fancy it curried but its a great dish in a light cream curry sauce with Fruit like Saltanas or Raisons , also a few almonds can be added . Not a thick sauce but a light sauce . I seem to remember the F-Word did one with Saffron a while ago .

MOnkfish is ideal for curry as it holds together well as is using it on Skewers on the BBq etc . Its a great meat and doesnt lend itself to battering as much as Haddock, Cod etc . You should cook fish to its strengths and not weaknesses, but its all a matter of taste at the end of the day.
Currying should be done for cheap fish which don't taste too good. How can get any taste of the fish when it is curried?
I would have simply fast grilled it with a baste of parsley, onion/Garlick and butter to keep it moist. Yummy. Serve with new potatoes where the baste will soak into them as well.

Not all curries need to kill your sinuses and give you an arse like the back end of the Batmobile!I can imagine monkfish being very good in a milder, delicate curry.

What fish is cheap these days and don`t taste good ?? I would have simply fast grilled it with a baste of parsley, onion/Garlick and butter to keep it moist. Yummy. Serve with new potatoes where the baste will soak into them as well.

Salmon makes great curry massalla as does Trout and bream but I wouldnt say these are neither cheap or tasteless .And why add ` Garlic ` to a great tasting fish that will definately mask the flavour!!
