Grilled Crispy Trout Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Celery Root Puree

   In a pot, combine the diced celery root and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer and cook until the celery root is tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and blend until smooth. Season with salt and set aside.

2. 2

   Cure the Leek Butter

   In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the sliced leeks and cook until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Strain the leeks from the butter, reserving both the butter and the leeks for later use.

3. 3

   Grill the Trout

   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Rub the cleaned trout with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Place the trout on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

4. 4

   Plating

   On a plate, spread a generous amount of celery root puree. Place the grilled trout on top and drizzle with the reserved leek butter. Garnish with smoked trout roe and sprinkle with chopped chives.
