Trout Paella

Bring the taste of Spain to the table with this delicious trout paella

Karaage Trout or Salmon

Japanese tempura is known as the lightest form of frying. A good way of making a small amount of trout or salmon go a long way.

Seared trout pass-arounds

These informal pass-arounds are a great way to branch out from smoked trout, without committing to a large fillet portion.

Plank Salmon

A modern interpretation of an ancient cooking method from the Pacific Northwest

Cured Trout Roe

Cured trout roe, sometimes even called trout caviar! A simple recipe with an indulgent result.

Insalata di Trote (Trout Salad)

A summery trout recipe inspired by the Italian tunnellers who worked on the Tongariro Hydro Power Scheme so many years ago.

Baked Trout with Herbed Tomatoes

A simple method best used when freshly picked summer tomatoes are available, otherwise pay a little extra for those vine-ripened tomatoes available most of the year.

Blackberry & Mint Relish

Just a small spoonful or two of this adds a splash of colour and taste to any game dish. It is also good paired with pan-fried trout.

Tongariro Trout with Wild Blackberries & Mint

Catching a trout on the Tongariro as a young chef and finding wild blackberries and mint on the riverbank encouraged me to enter a Taupō trout-cooking competition with this dish.
