  1. Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9 and boil a kettle. Heat a dry saucepan and pour the millet in before the water. Toast for 2 mins, stirring constantly. Pour in 400ml boiling water and simmer for 15 mins. Drain any remaining liquid in necessary, then fluff with a fork.
  2. Finely dice the shallot. Finely dice or crush the garlic. Heat a medium saucepan with 1/2 tbsp oil on a medium heat. Add the shallot and whole tomatoes and cook for 5-7 mins, stirring occasionally until softened. Add the garlic, cook for another 2 mins then stir in the harissa. Add the passata, 50ml water and the monkfish. Simmer for 10 mins until the fish is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
  3. Meanwhile, place the broccoli on a lined baking tray and drizzle over 1/2 tbsp oil. Season with sea salt and black pepper then roast for 10 mins.
  4. Quarter the preserved lemons and carefully remove the pulp in the middle. Finely dice the skin and half of the pulp. Roughly chop the mint leaves, then stir both through the drained millet.
  5. Serve the tomato harissa monkfish with the herby millet and roasted broccoli.
