Trout Caviar Fish And Chips Recipes

FISH AND CHIPS

Steps:

• 2 pounds haddock fillets, skinned and cut diagonally into 1 1/2-inch wide strips, 5 to 6 inches long
• Heat the oil in a large deep, pot over medium heat. Bring the oil to 325 degrees F. Regulate the temperature with a candy thermometer. Keep the potato sticks in a bowl of water to prevent browning before frying. Remove to paper towels and dry well before placing in oil. Working in batches, fry the potatoes until they are cooked through and tender but have no color, about 4 to 5 minutes. Be sure the fries have plenty of room and gently swish them around as they are cooking. Remove them from the oil and put them immediately on a paper towel lined baking sheet.
• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F and raise the temperature of the cooking oil to 375 degrees F.
• In a medium bowl, combine the flour, seafood seasoning, baking soda and pinch of salt. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and gently stir in the cold beer. Mix until just combined. When the oil is preheated to the correct temperature, dip the fish fillets in the batter mixture. Coat the fish generously. When adding the fish to the oil, dip about 1/3 to 1/2 of the fillet into the oil and allow the batter to start puffing and then gently slide it into the oil. Fry the fish until they are golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes turning the fish over during the cooking time. When the fish are done, remove from the oil and put immediately on paper towels to blot the excess oil. Arrange the fish on a baking sheet lined with a cooling rack. Hold the fish in the preheated oven until serving. Work in batches and be sure not to crowd the oil.
• Again, working in batches, fry the fries a second time at 375 degrees F, until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the oil, immediately put them on paper towels and toss with kosher salt. Transfer the fish to a serving platter and serve with the fries.

SPICED TROUT WITH SWEET POTATO CHIPS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. In a large, shallow roasting tin, toss the potatoes with 1 tbsp oil, salt and pepper. Roast for 25-30 mins, turning once or twice, until tender and crisp.
• Just before the chips are done, mix the flour, some salt, pepper and the Creole seasoning together on a plate. Dip the trout in the mix to evenly coat. Heat 2 tsp oil in a non-stick frying pan. When hot, carefully place the fish, skin-side down, in the pan. Fry for 3 mins, then flip and cook for 1-2 mins more or until cooked through.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a large pan. Add the spinach, cook until just wilted, then serve with the fish and hot chips.

STEAMED BROOK TROUT WITH SALMON CAVIAR

Steps:

• Place bean-thread noodles in a bowl and cover with boiling water to soften, (approx. 5 minutes).
• Choose a large, deep-sided frying pan with a lid, that will just fit the aromatics so they can form a 'raft' on which to place the fish, so the fish can steam. To the dish, add the lemongrass and spring onions and scatter around the kaffir lime leaves, ginger and garlic, then gently pour the fish stock over . Bring to the boil over a high heat. Place the fish fillets on top, scatter with the chilli, reduce the heat to a simmer and cover with a lid. Cook for 5 minutes or until the fish is opaque at the edges and still pink in the middle. Scatter the snow peas around the pan in the last minute of cooking.
• To serve, drain the noodles and divide between four bowls. Place the fish fillets on top. Stir the juice of 1 lime and the fish sauce through the fish stock and then discard the lemongrass and kaffir lime leaves. Taste and add more lime juice and fish sauce if necessary. Ladle the stock and snow peas around the fish. Top the fish with a heaped teaspoon of the salmon caviar and scatter over the coriander. Serve immediately with an extra lime cheek.
