Stuffed Trout in A Wine Sauce recipe
information
An old recipe which originally called for 'savoury herbs' in the stuffing. This term covered all the common garden herbs, so although thyme and rosemary are specified here, you could equally well substitute marjoram, dill, tarragon or chervil. Use wild trout if you are able to buy them.
ingredients
100 g (4 oz) fresh wholemeal breadcrumbs
15 ml (1 tbsp) chopped fresh mixed herbs, such as parsley, thyme, rosemary
finely grated rind and juice of 1/2 lemon
pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
salt and pepper
1 egg, beaten
4 trout, each weighing about 275 g( 10 oz), cleaned
25 g (1 oz) butter
30 ml (2 tbsp) plain flour
150 ml (1/4 pint) dry white wine
150 ml (1/4 pint) vegetable stock
