Remove the monkfish fillets from the central bone with a fine knife.
Keep the fillets in a cold place.
Peel the carrot, the celeriac and the onion, dice them and put them in a pan with some butter. Sweat them over a high heat, season very lightly with salt and pepper. Add the veal bone, the monkfish bones, the clove and the bay leaf and cover with the red wine.
Cook for 1 h 30 on a medium heat. Strain. Reduce the liquid by half, check the seasoning. Keep warm.
Roast the coffee beans in a dry frying pan and chop them roughly.
Wipe the monkfish fillets carefully using absorbent kitchen paper and cut them in large cubes.
Wrap each cube in a thin slice of ham and thread them on the skewers.
Brown them in a hot pan with grape seed oil. Sprinkle the coffee chips over them and serve immediately with the sauce.
