  1. CARAMELISED BUTTERNUT

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the butternut pieces on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes.

  2. FLUFFY QUINOA

    Rinse the quinoa and place in a pot with the stock. Submerge in 200ml of water and stir through. Pop on a lid, place over a medium-high heat, and bring to a simmer. Cook for 12-15 minutes until the quinoa is tender and its tails have popped out, adding more water if required during cooking. On completion, drain if necessary and return to the pot.

  3. NUTS & HONEY

    Place the pecans in a non-stick pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until golden brown, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside. Roughly chop when cool enough to handle. When the butternut has 10-15 minutes remaining, drizzle over the honey and return to the oven for the remaining time until cooked through and caramelised.

  4. NEVER POUT ABOUT TROUT

    Pat the trout dry with paper towel and season. Return the pan on a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the trout, skin-side down, for 2-3 minutes until crispy. Flip and fry for a further 30-60 seconds or until cooked through to your preference. Remove from the pan on completion.

  5. PEAS & LEAVES

    When the quinoa is drained, add the peas and cover to steam for 5 minutes. Place the quinoa in a bowl, add the rinsed green leaves, a generous drizzle of olive oil, and ½ of the chopped basil. Finish it off with a squeeze of lemon juice, lemon zest and seasoning to taste.

  6. DINNER IS SERVED

    Make a bed of loaded quinoa, top with caramelised butternut and a slab of perfectly cooked trout, and sprinkle over the toasted pecan nuts. Garnish with a lemon wedge and the remaining basil. Great work, Chef!
