Seared
trout bruschetta with horseradish
|
Method:
This
makes a delicious light lunch or snack supper. Using a pair
of tweezers pull out any small bones that may still remain
in the trout fillets.
-
Toast the bread under the grill or on a griddle, rub all
over with the garlic clove and drizzle with oil. Keep
warm in a low oven. Combine the creme fraiche, horseradish,
chives and salt and pepper.
-
Meanwhile, lightly season the fillets and brush over a
little extra oil. Heat a frying pan until really hot and
sear the trout skin side down for 3 minutes, flip and
cook for a further 30 seconds.
-
Arrange the seared trout over the bruschetta with a dollop
of the horseradish cream and some rocket leaves. Serve
drizzled with lemon juice and extra olive oil.
