Instructions

Step 1

Heat about 1/2 inch of oil in a small saucepan (this will save oil as the pan is small) until smoking. Carefully as they will spit add the capers. They will sizzle and bubble. You will notice that they will start to open and look like flowers. Wait until any sizzling has stopped. Set aside on kitchen paper to drain.

Step 2

Remove the fronds from the fennel and set aside. Cut off the tops of the fennel so you are left with a nice even surface. Cut the fennel in half lengthwise. Turn the fennel cut side down and slice as thinly as you can. Leave 1-2 cm from the core as it is woody. Set aside.

Step 3

In a bowl add all of the dressing . Give it a whisk to combine.

Step 4

Assemble the salad by sharing the rocket leaves between 2 serving bowls. Add the shaved fennel. Spoon over the dressing. Flake the trout in chunks on top of the fennel. Sprinkle over the crispy capers. Serve and enjoy. 😊
