Health-boosting Smoked Trout & Dill Pate

Smoked foods can help to ease nausea, so a great option for an unsettled stomach. Trout is packed with healthy omega fats to help reduce inflammation and ward off the risk of chronic disease, including cancer.

PREP TIME: 10 minutes 

SERVES: 1

INGREDIENTS

14 oz smoked trout fillet

1 tsp Dijon mustard

Pinch of freshly ground black pepper

3.5 oz ricotta cheese or cream cheese

3.5 fl oz crème fraîche

Juice of 1 lemon

Large handful of dill

METHOD

• Remove the skin from the trout fillets and check that there are no remaining bones.
• Place in a food processor with the mustard, black pepper, ricotta, crème fraîche, and lemon juice and process until smooth. If you don’t have a food processor, you can mash with a fork, but the consistency won’t be as smooth.
