For the mussels, prawns and the monkfish:

  1. Remove intestinal threads from shrimp if necessary. Cut the monkfish fillet into pieces 2-3 cm thick. Rinse the mussels and prawns, pat dry. Fry in 3 coated pans in hot oil for 2-3 minutes on each side. Pour in the rest of the butter. Salt and pepper.
