We've covered plenty of seafood in our Michelin chefs cook series, but we've yet to explore the delicious culinary depths of monkfish.
This juicy and robust fish has flesh similar to a lobster, hence it's nickname - poor man's lobster, and a mild flavour that lends itself to a variety of cooking techniques, from roasting to pan frying. However, cooking monkfish for the first time can be intimidating, especially given its size and unusual anatomy.
Where possible buy monkfish tail from the fishmonger, ready filleted, so you can get straight to experimenting with cooking this super succulent fish.
Below four Michelin chefs demonstrate how to cook monkfish to its fullest potential, from Gordon Ramsay to Theo Randall. Take a look.
