| | Suggestions for fresh trout pleasePage 1 of 1 | So, my son has spent the day fishing on the lake and has returned with his catch limit of 5 trout - only little fellas about 8 inches long. (It seems the big one got away). His friend's father has offered to clean and gut them and drop them off tomorrow in time for supper.
In the past I have pan fried them with butter and fresh dill. I have also grilled them with mushrooms and lemon juice.But this evening, he said he'd like to do something 'different'. Any ideas ? | |

Roasted sliced almonds on top. Toss with parsley lemon butter first.
Or stuffed with scallop mousse. Serve open faced. | |

Poach in Browned Butter, then sprinkle with sliced almonds, serve with steamed buttered broccoli and pan grilled green beans. OMG I am now drooling for trout. This is one of my most favorite meals.
The second way I cook them is to basically pan grill with just a thin coating of butter on the cast iron skillet. Then serve over baby greens and thin sliced apples, and a sauce of crushed pecans that have been toasted in browned butter after the trout are done, that I pour over the top and a couple of lemon wedges to squeeze over or sometimes a few fresh berries. YUMMY
Other than these, I only cornmeal coat and fry to eat with eggs when on a camping/fishing trip.

Posted: 6/3/2012 8:29:15 PM | | with trout that small i think corn meal might not be the way to go...the fish would be fried long before the corn meal has cooked and it may be a tad gritty...i would just dredge them in seasoned flour and fry in oil/butter and serve with a lemon wedge | |

Going to do the three smallest as Blalah suggested and the two slightly larger ones as idiot_savant suggested and see which my fisherman prefers. | |

I was unaware that there is a different way to prepare them... | |

Posted: 6/4/2012 12:05:20 PM | | I remember when i was a little kid we would take trout and wrap it in maple leafs REAL HEAVY and then pack it in mudd. Then we would lay our over the hot coal of our camp fire for 20 min turn once. I forgot to say how much I hate trout. Bad childhood memory. After 20 min peel away mudd and maple leafs. | |

GOOD EATING
We did that a lot when I was in Campfire Girls
