Oil (cooking, olive or coconut)
Salt & Pepper
Water
Paper Towel
Milk

Serves 1

RICE & SHINE
Rinse the rice and place in a pot over a medium-high heat. Submerge in 150ml of salted water and pop on a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and steam for a further 10 minutes. On completion, drain if necessary and fluff up with a fork.
TOAST
Place the Flaked Almonds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and roughly chop.
GETTING SAUCY
Place a small pot over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the grated garlic for 30-60 seconds until fragrant, shifting constantly. Remove from the heat, and vigorously whisk in the Tahini, 45ml of milk and the Lemon zest until smooth and a saucy consistency. Season to taste. Cover to keep warm. Just before serving, add a splash of milk if it’s too thick.
SPICED TROUT
Pat the trout fillets dry with paper towel. Coat the flesh in the za’atar, pressing down to coat well. Return the pan to 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.
ALMOST THERE
In a bowl, place the Carrot ribbons, ½ the Fresh Mint, a drizzle of olive oil, and some seasoning. Crumble in the drained feta and toss until fully combined. Mix the sultanas, and ½ the chopped Flaked Almonds through the cooked rice.
DELISH DINNER
Plate up a mound of rice, and top with the za’atar crusted trout fillet. Drizzle over the Tahini sauce. Squeeze over some Lemon juice and side with the fresh Carrot salad. Sprinkle over the remaining mint, chopped nuts and any remaining lemon wedges on the side. Beautiful, Chef!
