Bland, stodgy, boring and uninteresting! A fair description of our culinary heritage? I think not! More Tea, Vicar? is a shameless defence of the British eating experience, and an exploration of its magnificent traditions and heritage. Does British food deserve the bad reputation it has on the international culinary circuit? Granted it’s not nouvelle cuisine (a.k.a. small portions, high price), intricate garnishes, or exotic aromatics. British food is traditional, homely, warming and comforting. It is versatile, practical and loyal. 

Between rants and raves, comments and discussions, you'll find a selection of our favourite recipes, reviews of new and established restaurant, tea shops and eateries, cookbooks and kitchen gadgets.

Baked Trout PDF Print E-mail
Saturday, 30 May 2009
I had initially put this together as part of a "Meal for a Fiver" challenge, but when I missed the deadline I added a few more ingredients to create a meal in one fit for any table for two.

Ingredients

2 Whole Trouts, descaled and gutted (You can fillet if you prefer)
1 Lemon
6 Cherry Tomatoes, halved

1 Clove of Garlic, crushed
Selection of Mange Tout and Baby Corns (3/4 of each per person)
4 Tblsp White Wine
Olive Oil
4 Sprigs of Taragon
Salt and Pepper, to taste

  1. Pre-heat the oven to 180C.
  2. Take a large sheet of foil. It needs to be able to hold one of the Trouts and then fold up into an air, but sealed parcel.
  3. Lightly oil the foil before placing the fish onto it.
  4. Distribute evenly over each fish the tomatoes, garlic, vegetables, white wine and taragon. Drizzle over some olive oil and salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Fold up the foil parcels so that they are airy but completely sealed. Place the parcels of a baking tray and bake in the centre of the oven for 20 minutes.
  6. When done, allow the fish to rest undistrubed in its parcel before serving. You'll have a wonderfully cooked fish, ready with its own sauce and vegetables.
