Ocean trout tartare with tomato tea

Cooking Fish Ocean trout tartare with tomato tea

Escape the hustle and bustle with this relaxed appetiser that will satisfy your tastebuds.

  1. For the tea, remove tomato stalks and set aside. Blend tomatoes with remaining ingredients until smooth. Line a sieve with muslin or a clean chux, then set over a bowl. Pour tomato mixture into the sieve and drain for up to 2 hours or until you have about 1 1/2 cups (375ml) liquid. (Don't stir during this time, or your 'tea' will be cloudy.) Discard solids. Add reserved stalks to liquid, then chill while you prepare the trout.
  2. Line a tray with plastic wrap. Arrange six 7cm ring moulds on the tray (or use lined ramekins or dariole moulds).
  3. Finely chop trout, then combine with onion and vodka in a bowl. Press the mixture into the ring moulds, then chill for up to 30 minutes (any longer and the vodka will start to cook the trout).
  4. To serve, transfer the ring moulds to serving plates using a fish slice. Remove moulds, then garnish the trout tartare with micro herbs. Serve with the tomato tea to drizzle around the trout.
