Tips

  • Use good ingredients for the filling.
  • Make a well caramelized sofrito for the sauce
  • Add the fresh liver of the monkfish to the sauce for a good flavor, but it is optional.
  • If you buy a fresh monkfish, you can use the head and bones to make a fumet.
  • If the sauce is too thick, add a little more fumet or even a little water and blend again.
  • Always pass the sauces through fine strainers to have elegant and fine sauce
