Method

1. Melt the butter in a saucepan and fry the garlic, shallots and potatoes for 2-3 minutes. Add the white wine and bring to the boil. Add the monkfish, prawns, mussels and cockles. Cover and simmer gently for 6 minutes.

2. While the seafood is cooking, whiz the basil and butter together in a small blender.

3. After 6 minutes, remove the seafood from the heat, check that all of the shellfish have opened and add the basil butter in little knobs over the top. Shake the pan so that the butter coats everything and leave to sit for 2 minutes. Serve straight from the pan.
