Method

  1. 1

    Toast the flaked almonds in a dry frying pan for 2-3 minutes until golden, then set aside.

  2. 2

    Melt half the butter in the pan and fry the trout fillets, skin-side down first, for 3 minutes on each side until the fish flakes easily, then transfer to warm plates.

  3. 3

    Wipe out the pan and melt the remaining butter, swirling until it turns a nutty golden brown.

  4. 4

    Take off the heat and squeeze in the lemon juice, then stir in the parsley and toasted almonds.

  5. 5

    Spoon the almond brown butter over the trout and serve immediately.
