    Monkfish and ArtichokesThis is a dish that happened by accident. I intended to make roast monkfish with a wild mushroom sauce, but had left the mushrooms in the shop. After a cupboard hunt I ended up with a tin of artichokes, spuds, butter, garlic, tomatoes, as well as my new monkfish and parsley . . . I cooked it all in one pan and a true favourite was born.
