- Leave it to cool to room temperature.
- Now - on a roasting tray - arrange your slices of jamon in a row overlapping to keep the stuffing in.
- Then spread with the stuffing all over the jamon - leaving some to go between the Monkfish fillets.
- Right - put your Monkfish fillets on top of the jamon slices - spread the rest of the stuffing between them and squeeze them together.
- Now - carefully roll the Monkfish in the Jamon until you have a sausage shape.
- Roast in the oven - at 350f/175c./Gas 4 for 40 minutes.
