Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

  2. Step 2

    Peel the cucumbers and cut into thin strips about three inches long. Melt 2 tablespoons butter and saute the cucumber for five to 10 minutes, until it turns bright green and begins to lose its crunchiness.

  3. Step 3

    Butter an ovenproof dish. Sprinkle the trout cavities with dill, salt and peper and squeeze the lemon juice inside and over the trout. Arrange the cucumber over the top and around the trout. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes or until trout is cooked.

Good enough for guests

It's fine but does not have much flavour.

Don't see how cucumber is ever going to sauté to a dark green but it got plenty of buttery goodness from the sauté. I drizzled some of the browned butter into and over the trout and used a thin slice or two of preserved lemon inside the trout. The result was exceptional.
