Smoked Trout with Pea Shoots and Spring Onions

This elegant smoked trout with pea shoots and spring onions is a sophisticated starter that celebrates fresh, seasonal flavours. The richness of the flaked fish is perfectly offset by the sharp, peppery kick of horseradish and the light acidity of macerated spring onions. Using delicate pea shoots provides a crisp texture and a vibrant green hue that makes this dish look as impressive as it tastes.

Ideal for a light lunch or a dinner party appetiser, this dairy-free dish is naturally low in carbohydrates and deceptively simple to assemble. The combination of smoked seafood and creamy dressing is a classic of British cookery that never fails to please. Serve it on its own for a fresh beginning to a meal, or alongside some buttered soda bread for a more substantial weekend brunch.
