Instructions

5 steps
  1. 1

    To make the stock, put all the stock ingredients in a large saucepan, fill with water to cover and then bring to a boil. Simmer gently for 10 minutes. Strain the stock.

  2. 2

    To make the poached sea trout, put the sea trout in a clean pan, pour over the stock. Bring back to a simmer and cook very gently for 6-8 minutes, or until cooked, depending on the thickness of the fish.

  3. 3

    To make the croûtons, heat the butter until foaming. Add the cubes of bread and cook until golden-brown and crisp. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and then remove the croûtons from the pan and set to one side to drain on a plate lined with kitchen paper.

  4. 4

    To make the watercress sauce, blend the watercress, lime juice, shallot and wasabi together in a food processor or blender, until smooth. Add the crème fraîche and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper

  5. 5

    To serve, spoon some watercress sauce onto a plate, add the fish, scatter over some croûtons and garnish with a little more watercress.
