“Cook ingredients that you are used to cooking by other techniques, such as fish, chicken, or hamburgers. In other words be comfortable with the ingredients you are using.” – Bobby Flay
My trinity ingredients for fish: butter, dill and lemon. I am most comfortable with that, a sidedish of baked potatoes and steaming rice would suffice whether the fish is seared, baked or pan-grilled.
So next week came and I saw to it that we would arrive earlier than we did the last time. Thank goodness there were still a lot of them fish when we arrived. I got us brook trouts and a red-spotted trout, much bigger than what we caught from the rivers of Fürth (story to follow). Sorry, I know fish aren’t the most photogenic subjects but I just have to show this, you could see the pinkish flesh of both.
They’re surely bigger than a ruler size, head and tail not included…What I did for this dish was to stuff the fish belly with dill, sprinkle with salt and pepper, squeeze fresh lemon juice and put lemon slices on top. I put in whole, washed potatoes too and buttered everything generously. Got the ensemble baked and here’s what we got:

Just seeing the lemons already make me drool. Lol. I agree with the sayings. No matter how good the “something” that you want to make, if you’re not comfortable with the ingredients, I’m not sure if it will tastes the best!

Late visit via Food Friday. Here’s mine: Baked Cheese in Filo Pastry
i like a crunchy fish skin!
that is one healthy dish. sad that I grew up with an intense disapproval of anything fish. but i’ve learned to love tilapia, milkfish and dory over the years.
