Ingredients
- 6 x 150g smoked rainbow trout fillets
- 3/4 cup crème fraîche
- 1/3 cup whole-egg mayonnaise
- 1 small garlic clove, crushed
- 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill leaves, plus extra sprigs to serve
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- 2 baguettes, sliced
- Lemon wedges, to serve
- Pickled dill cucumbers, to serve
Method
- Remove the skin from the trout and discard it. Carefully remove the flesh, discarding any fine bones. Place trout flesh in a large bowl and gently flake into large pieces.
- Add crème fraîche, mayonnaise, garlic, dill, and lemon juice to the trout. Gently fold to combine, adjusting lemon juice if needed. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Divide the mixture evenly among eight 1/2-cup jars. Smooth the surface of each and cover with lids or plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 24 hours to set and develop flavors.
- Preheat the grill to high. Place half of the baguette slices on a baking tray and grill for 1-2 minutes per side, or until toasted. Repeat with the remaining baguette slices.
- Top each pot with extra dill sprigs. Serve with the toasted baguette slices, lemon wedges, and pickled dill cucumbers.
