Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz (375 g) wild rice
  • 3 oz (75 g) pine kernels, toasted and chopped
  • 3 tablespoons finely snipped chives, more for garnish
  • 3 bunches spring onions, finely sliced
  • 3 oz (75 g) piece of fresh root ginger, peeled and grated
  • Grated rind and juice of 2 lemons
  • 6 rainbow trout, cleaned
  • 2 oz (50 g) butter, softened

Instructions
 

  • Cook the wild rice in a large saucepan of boiling salted water for 40-45 minutes, or according to packet instructions, until tender. Drain thoroughly.
  • Turn the rice into a large bowl, add the toasted pine kernels, chives, spring onions, ginger and lemon rind. Season to taste with salt and pepper and stuff the trout with the mixture.
  • Line a baking sheet with a large piece of foil, allowing sufficient to fold over comfortably. Spread the butter over the foil. Put the trout on top and pour over the lemon juice. Fold the foil over the trout and fold the edges together to seal.
