Great I have those ingredients, what do I need to do?

To start with put the salt, flour and ground black pepper on a plate and mix together. Then put two pans on the hob, put oil on one and put on a medium high heat, leave the other off the heat for now. Next coat your monkfish fillet in the flour mixture.

  

 

Now it’s time to make the sauce, put all of the sauce ingredients into the pan which isn’t on the heat, along with 1/4 cup of water. Then put the pan on a low heat and allow to simmer.

 

Now place your basmati rice, in a saucepan of water with the ground coriander leaf, ground black pepper, lemongrass and lemon juice, put this on a medium high heat.

Now the oil should be very hot in the other pan, place the monkfish into the pan carefully, leave it for 3 minutes then shop some peppers and add it to the pan, and flip the monkfish and cook it for another 3 minutes, then transfer the monkfish to the plate ready for serving, and pour the sauce on top.

    

 

Next plate the rice while the peppers continue to cook, and lastly plate the peppers.
