Apple juice-and-lime-cured trout

By Hannah Lewry
2
Easy
20 minutes, plus 4 hours' curing time

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup Woolworths boxed 100% apple juice
  • 3 limes
  • 110 g caster sugar
  • 150 g coarse salt
  • 1 x 225 g fillet rainbow trout

Method

  1. Combine the apple juice, juice and zest of 2 limes, caster sugar and salt. Place the fish in a small, flat, non-metallic container or tray and pat the cure onto the fish. Slice the remaining lime and layer onto the fish.
  2. Cover with clingfilm and place a heavy object on top of the trout to compress it and help the flavours penetrate the fish. Chill for 4 hours. Rinse the cure off the fish, pat dry and slice very thinly.
  3. Serve with goat’s cheese and radishes, or spring onion on homemade Melba toast.

Cook's note: Curing fish at home is easier than you think. Lime juice "cooks" the trout and its tartness is balanced by the sweetness of apple juice. Maximum flavour for minimum effort.
