Prawn and Smoked Trout Salad

January 21, 2019 by admin Leave a Comment

We’ve been eating a lot of seafood during very hot weather over the last few weeks. Yesterday I smoked a rainbow trout with 1/3 cup each of green tea, brown sugar and jasmine rice. I use an old wok lined with a few layers of alfoil and a circular wire rack to sit in it. I use a portable gas cooker and do it outside! I put some sea salt on the trout and smoked it for 45 minutes, then wrapped it in foil and put it in the fridge. I later warmed it in the oven.

I just bought some cooked prawns. The seafood sauce was simply blitzed roast capsicum. The seafood needed some lemon as well, which I realised I could have put in with the capsicum.

A mixture of wild rice and jasmine rice topped with a sliver of chilli, cubed with my rusty rice cuber.

Salad of daikon rasish, cucucmber, mango, spring onion, cherry tomato, coriander and basil.

The salad dressing was a leftover saucc from another seafood dish that we had a couple of days ago. It is from Kylie
Kwong’s “Recipes and Stories”. The original recipe includes Chinese mixed pickles which I didn’t have.

1 tbps ginger julienne
1 1/2 cups chicken stock (preferably Chinese)
1 1/2 tbsp white sugar
2 tbsp light soy sauce

Put the above into a saucepan, bring to a simmer and cook for 4-5 minutes.

Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup black vinegar.

That’s it!

THE COOK

I live and cook in the Adelaide Hills in South Australia. The region is similar to the Mediterranean, with temperate climate, fertile hills, nearby ocean, wonderful local vegetables, fruit, wine and meat produced locally. Cooking has been a growing passion for me, about connecting culture, creativity, community and spirit. The small garden in our new home is currently being established with some native bush ‘tucker plants’ and a range of herbs. I’ve just bought a yuzu tree!
