  1. CAN’T BEET THIS

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the beetroot pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. PICKLED VEG

    In a salad bowl, combine the vinegar and 5ml of sweetener (to taste). Toss through the sliced cabbage, the grated carrot, and seasoning. Set aside to pickle.

  3. GOLDEN PEANUTS

    Place the chopped peanuts in a pan over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

  4. MISO BUTTER

    Boil the kettle. Return the pan to medium heat. When hot, melt 10g of butter. Remove from the heat. To a bowl, add the miso paste (to taste) and 15ml of boiling water. Mix until loosened and slowly whisk in the melted butter until combined. Set aside.

  5. TASTY TROUT

    Place a clean pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the trout dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the fish, skin-side down, until crispy, 2-3 minutes. Flip and fry the other side until cooked through, 30-60 seconds. Remove from the pan and season.

  6. ALMOST THERE

    Before serving, drain the vinegar from the cabbage and toss with ½ the toasted nuts.

  7. MISO HUNGRY!

    Serve up the roasted beetroot and side with the flaky trout. Drizzle over the miso butter and serve the nutty slaw on the side. Garnish with the remaining peanuts and dig in!
