DONOVAN COOKE’S COLD-SMOKED RAINBOW TROUT
RYNE, MELBOURNE – SERVES 4
TROUT PREP
SLOW-COOKED TROUT
4 cold-smoked trout fillets 20 ml olive oil
M E T H O D Remove the trout from the fridge and place it in a vacuum pack bag with olive oil and seal on maximum vacuum. To cook the trout, place in a thermo circulator at 58°C for 4 minutes.
GARNISH
Smoked trout essence 200 g daikon, julienne
5 g dashi powder
40 g salmon roe
4-6 red radishes, thinly sliced 10 g horseradish
1 p unit micro watercress
M E T H O D Place the daikon in a bowl. Pour in enough boiling water to cover the daikon and mix in the dashi powder. When the daikon has softened slightly, drain and pat dry. Mix the daikon and salmon roe into the smoked trout essence and set aside. To assemble, place a spoonful of the daikon and trout essence mixture on a plate. Remove the trout from the sous-vide bag. Peel off the skin and brush flesh with olive oil. Put the fish on the top of the daikon, and place a few slices of radish on the fish. Cut the micro watercress and sprinkle the leaves on top of the radish, then grate some of the horseradish on top and serve.
