Marinated dishes help to mask flavours when the sense of taste is altered

Preparation

1.Ask the fishmonger to clean the monkfish and cut into 3 cm cubes.
2.Chop the parsley.
3.In a large bowl, mix the juice of the two lemons with the oregano, chopped parsley, crushed whole garlic cloves and salt.
4.Add the monkfish. Stir and marinate for 30-40 minutes in the refrigerator.
5.Coat the fish. First with flour, then with egg, and finally with breadcrumbs. Fry in a frying pan with plenty of olive oil. It is important that the oil is very hot to reduce absorption.
6.Drain on absorbent paper and serve with a slice of lemon and chopped parsley on top.

Chef’s tip

Cover the bowl with cling film or a silicone lid so that it does not pick up odours from other foods in the refrigerator
