This stunning poached trout recipe takes a little time to prepare, but the pay-off is huge in terms of flavour. The fragrant broth, made of ginger, tomato and lemongrass, is used to gently poach the fish and vegetables, resulting in an incredibly light, clean finish.

1

To make the broth, mix together the ginger, tomatoes and lemongrass in a large bowl and allow to macerate for 3–4 hours in the fridge

1 lemongrass stalk, 4cm long, bruised
10 vine tomatoes, large and ripe, roughly chopped
1 slice of ginger, 1cm thick, roughly chopped

After this time, blend to a rough pulp. Hang the mixture in a muslin cloth in the fridge overnight with a jug underneath to catch all the liquid

3

To serve, warm the broth to just below a simmer and add the vegetables. Cook until the vegetables are only just cooked through

1 handful of shiitake mushrooms, halved

1 handful of samphire
1 small red chilli, finely chopped
