Scrape off the scales from tail to head using a fish sealer or back of a knife rinsing frequently. Slit along the belly and remove the intestines; rinse thoroughly.

A sophisticated version of trout with almonds! Fresh pink trout is basted with paprika butter and baked until crisp and russet coloured. The accompanying pure of toasted almonds parsley garlic parmesan and olive oil has a superb earthy flavour.
