Ocean trout with kohlrabi salad
SERVES 4
4 skin-on ocean trout fillets (180gm each)
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil KOHLRABI SALAD
750 gm kohlrabi 210 gm (3/4 cup) Greek-style yoghurt 1 cup (loosely packed) dill, coarsely chopped
1½ tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tsp salted capers, rinsed, coarsely chopped
1 Preheat oven to 200°C. For kohlrabi salad, trim top and bottom from kohlrabi. Discard trimmings and cut kohlrabi into julienne. Combine yoghurt, dill, mustard and capers in a small bowl. Season to taste then gently fold in kohlrabi.
2 Line an oven tray with baking paper. Using a sharp knife, remove skin from trout. Wash skin, then pat dry with absorbent paper. Place skin on tray and bake until crisp
(10 minutes). Cut into thin strips with scissors.
3 Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat and cook trout until cooked medium-rare (2 minutes each side), or to your liking. Season to taste.
4 Serve trout with kohlrabi salad, topped with crisp skin.
