Recipe of Chef Gianni Bartalini, second course
Recipe
Ingredients and preparation
Ingredients for 2 person:
- 2 diced fillet of Monkfish
- 2 Long slices of Colonnata lard
- 1/2 Glasses of balsamic vinegar
- 2 Tablespoon of sugar
- Half handfull of Zolfini beans
- Salt q.b.
- Pepper q.b.
- Extra-virgin oil q.b.
- Water q.b.
- Sage q.b.
- Garlic q.b.
Put the Zolfini beans in water for about 6-8 hours. After simmering them in water, oil, sage, garlic and a little bit of salt, for 40 minutes/1 hour, according with the doneness you like.
Meanwhile, pour the balsamic vinegar in a pan with sugar and let it reduce until it has reached the right density (remember that when it is cold it tends to harden even further).
Then, wrap the bacon around the mouthful of monkfish, stopping it with a toothpick, flavored with a little bit of oil, salt and pepper and bake in a pan wrapped with baking paper at 200° C for 8-10 minutes. When they are ready, put a little bit of balsamic vinegar on a plate and place the morsel of hot monkfish over it, then add the beans (drained of their cooking water) next to it, with a little bit of olive oil and freshly ground pepper and… ENJOY YOUR MEAL!
