Potato-Mustard Crusted Trout

Serves 4

 


4 whole trouts, boned and eviscerated
4 tablespoons rehydrated Chinese mustard
1 tablespoon sugar
2 cups potato flakes
Frisee salad tossed lightly with lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Canola oil

Season the trout with salt and pepper. In a bowl, combine mustard and sugar and brush on both sides of the trout. Place potato flake in baking dish and season with salt. Press both sides of trout into potato flake. Coat a large, non-stick sauté pan over low-med heat well with oil. Cook trout until both are sides colored and fish is cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Serve crispy trout on top of salad.

  • Wine Notes:

    2005 Julia's Vineyard Cambria Pinot Noir
    100% Pinot Noir from Santa Maria Valley in CA. A lovely pinot noir with flavors of bright red fruit at the top with an underlying earthiness.
    Pairs well with the Mustard Roasted Chicken.

    Mionetto Rose
    Comprised of Raboso, Cabernet and Merlot grapes from the Veneto region, this is a well-balanced, pleasantly fruity wine with a long, dry finish.
    Very drinkable on it's own as an aperitif, but also works well with cured meats, cheeses and freshwater fish like trout. Pairs nicely with the Potato Mustard Crusted Trout and Gordon Hamersley's Shrimp and Potato Salad.
