method
1. Sieve flour and salt into a bowl. Make a well in the centre and pour in the egg. Beat in the milk with a wooden spoon until smooth.
2. Heat a 6 inch (15 cm) frying pan and brush with a little melted butter. Pour in just enough batter to cover the bottom and swirl to coat evenly. Cook for 2 minutes, turning once. Keep warm. Repeat to make 12 pancakes.
3. Fry the root ginger, spring onions and carrot in the oil for 5 minutes until softened. Add soy sauce and trout and simmer for 2 minutes. Gently stir in the soured cream, season with black pepper and heat through.
4. Fold each pancake into four to make a pocket and divide the filling between them. Serve with sliced, steamed courgettes.
