I remember that I have actually defrosted the Trout, so Trout its going to be!The oven is preheating and in the meantime I have taken out a rectangular dish, added some chopped onions, tomatoes, spices and all it needs now is the Trout.Suddenly I remind myself that Trout is a delicate fish and might be lost with the peppers and onions etc..and I’ve made a decision!I’m going to add Sweet Potatoes instead of Trout into the dish.So,I chop-up my Sweet Potatoes into small chunks and add them to the mix and that’s it!Bake it in the oven till done.
Trout is going to get a spa-like treatment with a delicate rub of salt, pepper, paprika and lemon juice!Yeah, dinner dilemma sorted!Without any effort literally.The sweet potatoes cook in about 25-30 mins, absolutely perfect and delicious with all the aromatic Indian spices in there.I grill the Trout about 10 mins before we sit to eat and serve it with some salad.Perfecto!
With Valentine’s day round the corner, this could be a perfect vegetable dish to be served!Follow your meal with my Chocolate Decadence for a perfect Valentines’ Day Dessert!
