Monkfish liver is seasoned with spices, steamed and packed into a terrine mould, then chilled for hours in the fridge to make an elegant dish from French bistro tables. Low in carbohydrate and free of nuts, it makes for a light yet sophisticated starter.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Season the Liver

15 min

Rub the monkfish liver with the salt, pul biber, black pepper and lemon zest.

2

Wrap and Steam

20 min

Wrap the seasoned liver tightly in cling film and steam it in a steamer pot for 20 minutes.

3

Pack into the Mould

15 min

Remove the cooked liver from the film, pack it into a narrow terrine mould and weigh it down.

4

Chill and Set

360 min

Chill the mould in the fridge for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight; this is what lets the terrine set to a sliceable texture.

Reminder

Make sure there are no air pockets when wrapping the liver in cling film, or the terrine will fall apart when sliced. Allergens: contains fish (monkfish liver).

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If monkfish liver is unavailable, cod liver gives a similar texture and flavour, but since it is richer, shortening the cooking time by 5 minutes is enough.

Buharda pişirme süresini 20 dakika yerine 25 dakika yaptım, karaciğer biraz daha yoğun bir doku aldı. Soğutmayı 6 saat yerine 4 saatte kestim, dilimleme biraz zorlaştı ama yine de mümkün oldu.

Karaciğeri streç filme sararken hava boşluğu kalmasın diye çok sıkı sardım, film yer yer yırttı; daha esnek film mi kullanmalıyım yoksa çift kat mı sarmalıyım? Tadı ve kıvamı yine de çok başarılıydı.

Terrin 6 saat sonunda mükemmel dilimlendi, kenarları hiç dağılmadı. Limon kabuğu rendesi tada hafif bir ferahlık kattı.
