Ingredients
1 cup fresh morels
1 tablespoon sunflower oil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
6 8-ounce rainbow trout filets, pin bones removed
1 tablespoon grapeseed oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
shell pea-mint sauce (see below)
1 cup shell peas, shucked
2 cup vegetable stock
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup fresh italian parsley leaves
2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. On a small baking sheet, toss the morels with the oil, salt and pepper. Roast until tender, about 5 minutes.
In flat bowl, combine the flour, salt and pepper. Dust the trout on both sides in the seasoned flour. Heat the oil in a large skillet over moderately high heat and add the butter. When it melts, carefully add the trout filets. Cook, turning once, for about 2 minutes per side. To serve, spoon warm pea sauce on the plate, top with trout and a few morels.
Blanch the peas in salted boiling water until tender, about 3 minutes. Shock in a bowl of ice water bath, then drain and transfer to a blender or food processor. Add the Court Bouillon, olive oil, mint, parsley, salt and pepper. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy.
