1/4 cups Grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
4 Parsnips; peeled, and cut into thin strips
2 cups Hot parsnip puree
1 cup Hot mashed potatoes

Instructions

* Note: See the "Emeril's Essence Information" recipe which is included in
this collection.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Preheat the fryer.

Season the monkfish with Emeril's Essence. Wrap three pieces of the bacon
tightly around each piece of monkfish. In a large oven-proof saute pan,
heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the wrapped
monkfish and sear the fish for 2 minutes on the first side. Flip the
monkfish over and place the pan in the oven and roast for 6 to 8 minutes.

Season the sliced vegetables with olive oil and Essence. Place the
vegetables on the grill and cook for 2 minutes on each side. Remove the
vegetables from the grill and dice. In a large saute pan, heat 2
tablespoons of olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions and saute for
1 minute. Add the diced vegetables, shallots and garlic and saute for 2
minutes. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Stir in the balsamic and
simmer for 1 minute. Stir in the olives, tomatoes and stock. Bring the
liquid to a simmer and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Reseason if needed. Stir in
the butter and remove from the heat.

Place the parsnip strips in the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 1
minute, stirring constantly to prevent the parsnips from sticking. Remove
the parsnips from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season the
parsnips with salt and pepper.

Combine the parsnip puree and mashed potatoes together. Mix well.

To serve, spoon some of the parsnip-mash potatoes in the center of each
plate. Lay each piece of monkfish directly on top of the potatoes. Spoon
the sauce over the fish. Garnish each plate with a pile of fried parsnips,
basil and cheese.
