    Trout is lovely when you drizzle them with a little lemon juice and sprinkle on flaked almonds and then cook as you get a lovely nutty flavour off of them, serve it with buttery chive mash.

    I caught a couple of trout on Friday afternoon, and I normally clean and gut them as soon as I get back. Unfortunately I had to go straight out when I got home, and was away yesterday and last night. I'm planning on having them tonight - they've been in the fridge since Friday, but is the fact they haven't been gutted a problem, or will they be perfectly OK to eat?

    Thanks in advance.

    When I've had them like this they were fine - as in not 'off' - but they tasted a bit muddy, for want of a better word!

    Gut them now & soak them in water with a bit of salt added - hopefully flavour will be OK.

    Pan fry it in butter - really nice!

    Or if you're having a bbq in the near future (under an umbrella if at all!) put it on some foil and smoke it. Can then be eaten warm with a dollop of mayo in a salad.
    Life in this world is, as it were, a sojourn in a cave. What can we know of reality? For all we can see of the true nature of existence is, shall we say, no more than bewildering and amusing shadows cast upon the inner wall of the cave by the unseen blinding light of absolute truth, from which we may or may not deduce some glimmer of veracity, and we as troglodyte seekers of wisdom can only lift our voices to the unseen and say humbly "Go on, do deformed rabbit again.....it's my favourite". © Terry Pratchett in "Small Gods"

    I bake trout, salmon etc with fennel, dill or rosemary, drizzled with olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Takes about 8-10 minutes for a fillet, more for whole fish, be careful not to overcook, as overcooked fish is very unpalatable

    i grill trout fillets and serve them with lemon cous cous and veg, and with home made salsa.

    something else that goes really well with trout is horseradish - mix some with sour cream or yoghurt or whatever.
