Trout Patties image

Came up with this recipe because I have 2 avid fishermen in my home and plenty of trout to cook. Also have a recipe for an easy homemade cocktail sauce, which goes well with the patties, but it's optional.

Time 1h43m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds skinless, boneless trout fillets
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 small onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
½ cup seasoned bread crumbs
3 eggs
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 ½ teaspoons lemon pepper seasoning
vegetable oil for frying
¾ cup ketchup
2 tablespoons prepared horseradish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place a piece of aluminum foil large enough to wrap up trout in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Place trout in the prepared pan; drizzle butter and lemon juice on top. Fold up aluminum foil to enclose trout in a packet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until flesh flakes easily with a fork, about 1 hour. Cool for 10 minutes. Flake into a large bowl; add onion and celery. Mix in seasoned bread crumbs.
  • Beat eggs, mayonnaise, and lemon pepper seasoning in a small bowl until blended. Mix into trout mixture. Form trout mixture into 12 patties.
  • Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Fry patties in batches until deep golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
  • Mix ketchup and horseradish together in a small bowl to make cocktail sauce. Serve with trout patties.

TROUT CAKES



Trout Cakes image

Clearly this recipe can be done with salmon, kokanee, char or really any fish you want. I just like it with trout. The herbs are also open to improvisation; the combination I use is what I like. Serve these with a green salad or as the filling in a sandwich.

Categories     Main Course

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound trout meat, (skinless and boneless)
1 cup minced onion
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup breadcrumbs
2 eggs, (lightly beaten)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup chopped parsley
1/4 cup chopped chives
1/4 cup chopped tarragon or dill
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup vegetable oil, (for frying)

Steps:

  • Cook the minced onion with the butter in a small pan over medium heat until translucent, but not browned. Remove from the pan and let cool.
  • Chop the trout meat with a knife into bits. You can chop very roughly and then pulse a couple times in a food processor, but you want the trout in little pieces, not as a paste.
  • Mix all the remaining ingredients (except the frying oil) together in a large bowl. Form cakes with your hands. I like them about the width of my palm. You will need to wash your hands a couple times to remove debris; this helps you make cleaner, nicer cakes.
  • Let the cakes sit in the fridge for 20 minutes or so -- this lets the breadcrumbs absorb moisture, which helps your cakes hold together.
  • Heat the frying oil in a large, wide pan over medium-high heat. Fry as many cakes as will fit in one layer without touching. Cook them until each side is golden brown, about 4 to 6 minutes per side. Serve hot.

Smoked trout fish cakes with mushy peas image

These homemade fishcakes, with a horseradish kick are packed with flavour and goodness, perfect for a midweek meal

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

600g potatoes , diced
2 tbsp hot horseradish (we used English Provender)
200g smoked trout fillets, flaked
zest and juice 1 lemon , plus extra lemon wedges to serve
25g plain flour
400g frozen peas
100ml 3 and a half fl oz hot vegetable stock
1 tbsp vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water for about 10 mins, until tender. Drain really well, then return to the pan and steam dry for a few mins. Remove from the heat, add the horseradish, then mash together.
  • Gently stir in the flaked trout, lemon zest and half the juice with some seasoning. When the mixture is cool enough to handle, make 8 patty-shaped cakes, dust each one lightly with flour, then chill for 5 mins to set.
  • To make the mushy peas, put the peas in a pan with the stock and bring to the boil, reduce the heat and cook for 3 mins until tender. Transfer to a food processor, or use a stick blender, and whizz for 30 secs to a crush. Tip them back into the pan, add a squeeze of lemon juice and some seasoning, and keep warm.
  • Heat the oil in a frying pan until hot, cook the fish cakes for 3-4 mins on each side until golden and crisp - you may have to do this in batches. Serve with mushy peas and some extra lemon wedges on the side.
