Preparation
Servings: 10
Make pancake batter by mixing flour and salt in mixing bowl. Make
well in center and pour in the egg, 4 tsp oil and 1 cup milk. Whisk
to smooth batter then add remaining milk.
Remove any skin from monkfish, rinse and cut into bite-size pieces.
Pat dry. Rinse and pat dry scallops, cut in half. Pour 3/4 cup milk
into saucepan, add garlic and bring to simmer. Add all fish except
shrimp. Simmer for 5-6 minutes then add shrimp. When shrimp turn pink
remove all fish to a bowl and set aside. Strain fish milk and reserve
for sauce. Place butter in saucepan and melt, add flour and stir for
2 minutes, then pour in reserved milk and the cream. Continue to stir
and simmer for a few minutes until you have a smooth sauce. Turn heat
to low, add cheese and parsley and season to taste with salt and
pepper. Add fish, mix well.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Place small frying pan or omelet pan over high heat. Lightly grease
it with a little oil. Beat pancake batter, then pour 3 Tbsp into pan.
Turn pan so bottom is covered evenly with batter and cook for 40-60
seconds, turn and cook 30-40 seconds longer. Transfer to large plate.
Continue with remaining batter. (There should be enough filling for
10 pancakes.) Place an equal amount of filling (about 3 Tbsp) in
center of each pancake, fold the sides over filling and arrange in
ovenproof dish just large enough to hold pancakes. Place in oven for
20 minutes, or until the pancakes are hot through. Serve immediately.
These thin pancakes, which conceal a tasty mixture of fish, will
appeal to the masked and mysterious side of the Cancerian, who when
in need of refreshment and quiet will reture into his or her own
protective shell. These can be served as a first course or as a
luncheon dish for four, with a green salad and a very chilled white
wine.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easy
When deciding on a weight loss program, it is essential to try to restrict your intake of salt, fat and refined carbohydrate.
Some low carbohydrate diet guidlines:
* Know what is in your food
Be sceptical of sales blurb that claims 'low carb' - check the actual nutritional information on the reverse of the can or package. Many are only a little lower and in some cases still greater than a competitors standard brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' does not always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are just the same.
* Make reduced carb breadcrumbs for breaded foods.
Although you may be able to buy reduced carb bread crumbs, you may also make them by simply using reduced carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the reduced carbohydrate bread in a gas or electric oven on a cookie sheet. Once it is quite hard and crispy, process it in your food mill. Store in an airtight container.
Flavonoid rich foods
(inlcudes olive oil, spinach, adzuki bean & coriander)
The flavonoids which exist in these natural foods are thought by nutritionalists to have properties in preventing cancer.
Experts researching the medical effects of flavonoids believe they may well also have many health giving capabilities, including, but not limited to, anti-allergic and antiplatelet activities..
The majority of these are also low in calories, so are ideal for including in your diet.
