Prep: 30 mins | Cooking: 10 mins | Serves 4
CELERIAC SALAD
Mix together the mayonnaise, mustard, 1 teaspoon of salt, lemon juice, and a few grinds of black pepper.
Peel the celery root with a potato peeler and shred using a mandolin it coarsely. Mix the dressing with the celery root and taste, adding additional salt, pepper, mustard, and lemon juice, to taste.
The celeriac salad will keep for 2–3 days covered in the refrigerator.
TO COOK
Preheat a grill or barbecue to a medium heat, place a piece of baking paper* (and rub with some oil). Drizzle some olive oil on the ocean trout and season to taste. Place each piece of ocean trout on the grill and cook for three minutes on each side or until medium rare.
* To stop the ocean trout sticking to the chargrill, place a piece of baking paper and drizzle with oil. (Baking paper should not be larger than the fish/cooking area otherwise it’ll catch on fire.)
TO SERVE
Place fish on plate and serve with celeriac salad and accompany with watercress tossed in dressing.
