Fabio, his gal pal + Jonas and I recently ate at Eathouse Diner and were inspired by their fantastic smoked trout salad. Jonas and I decided we had to replicate it at home and this is what we came up with.
As was the original, this salad was DELICIOUS.
We did make a few changes, for instance they used watercress and we switched our greens to baby spinach. It’s not as crunchy as the watercress, but it works well nonetheless.
This is a perfect summer dinner. You can serve it as your entree (starter) but Jonas and I happily ate it as our main course. It would be wonderful at a picnic too.

Jonas & Anna’s very own recipe. Serves 4 as an starter.
Ingredients:
½ cup (125ml) crème fraîche3 tablespoons (60ml) lemon juice
2 teaspoons lemon zest
2 tablespoons chives, finely chopped
2 tablespoons parsley, finely chopped
3 teaspoons grated horseradish
700g potatoes, boiled then cubed
400g smoked trout, chopped
50g baby spinach
6 radishes, finely sliced
Method:
1. Make the dressing by whisking together the crème fraîche, lemon juice, lemon zest and grated horseradish.
2. In a large bowl add to the potatoes, radishes, chives and parsley enough dressing to suit your tastes and toss gently.
3. When you’re ready to serve, add the spinach and combine well. Top salad with trout.
You're right, it does sound like a perfect summer meal. I love the red of the radishes popping out in a salad too.
