Chilli Spiced Trout
Serves 2
Ingredients:
2 whole trout
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 small green chilli, seeded and chopped
陆 tsp ground coriander
陆 tsp ground cumin
陆 tsp ground turmeric
1 tbsp lemon juice
Yoghurt and cucumber sauce
1 cucumber
salt
mint leaves
275 ml (陆 pint) natural yoghurt or thick Greek yoghurt
Method:
Spiced Trout
Gently fry the finely chopped onion, garlic, and chilli in hot oil for 2-3 minutes. Add the spices and lemon juice. Cook for 2 minutes longer to release the flavours.
Clean the trout and slash each side at the thickest part 2 or 3 times. Coat all over with the spice mixture. Leave covered for 1-2 hours so that the flavours can develop and then grill under a medium heat for 5-6 minutes on each side. Serve with a yoghurt and cucumber sauce.
Yoghurt and cucumber sauce
Peel the cucumber, slice or shred it and leave it, sprinkled with salt, to drain for about half an hour. Use kichen paper to pat off any excess moisture and then mix the cucumber with the yoghurt, a few chopped mint leaves and seasonings.

However, my husband and his buddies always make this simple dish after we've been trout fishing...its so easy...and goo. but NOT good for you. They take the trout and piece it with bacon and pineapple (held together with toothpicks) dredge the combo in fish fry (buy the premade -its easiest) and then fry it all up. Its so good....goes really well with grilled asparagus or hash brown casserole...something that can be light and/or hearty.
Why not look on www.allrecipes.com? Rice is a good choice for fish, meat, chicken, etc.
first dip fish in apple juice
rub it down with seasoned salt, white pepper, Oregano, Majoram, Thyme, and a pinch of cayenne.
Bake the rubbed trout stuffed with thin green apple slices and onions...
marinate with apple cider to keep it moist...apple wine is okay too
add cooked bacon and it's even better.
once you've steamed your rice...
fry it hot in a skillet coated with olive oil
pile it in the middle and push a crater into the pile
fille the crater with grated parmesan
stir and mash until the parmesan cheese is melted and you have a pretty good gloppy mess.
sprinkle oregano over the top and put it on a plate.
- if I use any bacon for the stuffing...I take the hot recooked bacon, apple slices, and onions right out of the cooked trout...put it into and onion chopper and make a ';mash'; that goes nicely over the rice.
Enjoy with a riesling
