Court Bouillon
for the sauce

method
1. Clean the salmon trout, if necessary, but leave the head and tail on.
2. Place the fish in a kettle or suitable pan and pour in the court bouillon to cover the fish by at least 3.5 cm/1 1/4 inches. Top up with water if necessary. Bring the liquid to a bare simmer, cover the pan tightly and cook for about 30 minutes or until the thickest part of the fish yields slightly when pressed.
3. Carefully transfer the fish to a board or platter. Skin as much of the fish as possible. Turn the fish on to a serving platter, or carefully turn it over, and strip off the remaining skin. Cover loosely with a cloth and set aside to cool.
4. Make the sauce by mashing the avocado flesh in a bowl with the remaining ingredients until it has the consistency of thick mayonnaise. A food processor or blender may be used, but take care not to over-process the mixture.
5. When the fish is cold, use a little of the sauce to mask it. Serve the remaining sauce separately.
