New Year's trout recipes for the New Year - 12 cooking recipes

Of course, the simplest thing is to simply fry the fish in vegetable oil, rolling it in flour or breadcrumbs (the latter is preferable, since the thin skin of river trout will not stick to the pan). The taste and texture of the meat of the river dweller differs from, say, that same red trout from the salmon family, to which many in Russia are accustomed. And there are fewer methods for preparing it, since the fish is more delicate. So if you come across rainbow trout with white meat, it is better to stick to frying it whole or baking it in the oven.

Red-colored trout, which are sold in stores in cut pieces in the form of serious steaks, is suitable for a variety of purposes. It can be stewed, baked, fried, pickled, salted, even steamed. You can add it as an ingredient to more complex dishes, prepare a stew or casserole, salad or pate from it.

If you have enough time before the holidays, try marinating or salting the fish. The taste will be very different from store bought. Serve as a separate appetizer or make beautiful canapés.

Trout baked in a vegetable or nut coat or on a pillow also fits perfectly into the New Year's atmosphere. Just like baked steaks - they look very respectable on plates. Again, if you have time, you can play with puff pastry - vol-au-vents, for example, will be just right.

Festive rolls are a winner in terms of taste, appearance, and filling options on any table. And New Year’s Eve is no longer complete without them. You can easily roll these from trout fillet, filling them with a delicate pate based on avocado or curd cheese.

Do you want something complicated? Then all that remains is to cook the trout in the boyar, merchant, and royal style. The names speak for themselves - ideally we will get lush dishes with interesting flavors.
