Sauce
4 1/2 cups small cauliflower florets (from about one 22-ounce head)
1 cup whipping cream
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 tablespoons (or more) water
Lentils and Browned Butter Cauliflower
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped peeled carrots
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1 cup French green lentils (lentilles de Puy)*
3/4 teaspoon curry powder
3/4teaspoon paprika
2 3/4 cups water, divided
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter

Gremolata
1/3 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 1/2 tablespoons grated lemon peel
Fish
4 6-ounce monkfish fillets (each about 1 inch thick), skin removed
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • For sauce:
  • Bring first 4 ingredients to boil in medium saucepan. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until cauliflower is very tender, about 17 minutes. Cool slightly. Transfer mixture to blender; add 3 tablespoons water and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill. Rewarm over medium heat, stirring, and adding more water to thin sauce, if desired.)
  • For lentils and browned butter cauliflower:
  • Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery; sauté until soft, about 8 minutes. Add lentils, curry, and paprika; stir 1 minute. Add 2 1/2 cups water; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until lentils are tender, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes. Uncover; stir until liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook butter in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned, about 2 minutes. Add cauliflower; sauté until beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water; cover and cook until cauliflower is crisp-tender and water evaporates, about 3 minutes longer. Stir in lentil mixture. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Rewarm before serving.)
  • For gremolata:
  • Mix parsley and lemon peel in bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  • For fish:
  • Sprinkle monkfish with salt and pepper. Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish; sauté until just opaque in center, about 6 minutes per side.
  • Divide sauce among 4 plates. Spoon lentil mixture alongside. Place fish atop lentils; sprinkle with gremolata.
  • *Available at specialty foods stores and some supermarkets.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: Monkfish is a great choice for this curry because it's a sturdy fish that can withstand the long cooking time. Other good options include halibut, swordfish, and salmon.
  • Use a good quality curry paste: The curry paste is the key to this dish, so make sure you use a good quality one. Look for a paste that is made with fresh ingredients and has a good balance of flavors.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the heat: This curry can be made as mild or as spicy as you like. If you like a lot of heat, add more chili peppers or curry paste. If you prefer a milder curry, reduce the amount of chili peppers or use a milder curry paste.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: This curry is delicious served with rice, naan bread, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

This curried monkfish is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover fish. So next time you have some extra fish, give this curry a try. You won't be disappointed!
