Trout with Almonds

• 2 oz (50 g) unblanched almonds
• 4 trout
• seasoned f

Whole almonds, freshly blanched and cut into thin slivers give the best results. Flaked almonds could be used instead.

Cover the whole, unblanched almonds with boiling water and allow to stand for a few minutes. Drain and pop the almonds out of the skins, then, with a sharp knife, cut the nuts into thin slivers. Almonds are easier to cut thinly when they are warm and newly blanched.
