TROUT & BACON

This recipe is almost too good to be true. It uses a few inexpensive and wholesome ingredients, the preparation is really simple, yet it gives a really luxurious result with an unusual but delicious combination of flavours.

Serves 2

INGREDIENTS

2 trout fillets with the skin on
2 large or 4 small rashers of bacon
1 tablespoon of butter
¼ of a teaspoon of dried parsley
Ground pepper to taste

METHOD

Rinse the fish under cold water. Remove any excess water from the fish with some kitchen paper. Run your fingers along the fish and remove any remaining small bones with your thumb and forefinger or a pair of tweezers.

Put the bacon in the bottom of an ovenproof dish.

Put the trout fillet, skin side up, on top of the bacon.

Mix the butter and parsley together.

Spread half of the parsley butter on top of each trout fillet.

Season with the pepper.

Cook in a preheated oven at 180°C, 350°F, gas mark 4 for about 25 minutes.

ADDITIONS & ALTERNATIVES

Use fresh parsley instead of dried parsley.

Serve with new potatoes and green vegetables or crusty bread and a salad.

TIPS

You can get ready-made pats of butter with parsley in it from supermarket fish counters.
