Rye Toasts With Smoked Trout And Scrambled Eggs Recipes

Steps:

• Cut the fish into 1/4-inch dice. In a bowl, combine the trout, creme fraiche, lemon juice, capers, red onion and parsley. Season with salt and lemon to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 4 hours.
• Heat oven to 180 degrees. Cut the crusts off the bread and brush both sides with melted butter. Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat. Working in two batches, brown the bread on both sides, about one minute per side. Remove and keep warm in oven.
• In a bowl, whisk eggs, remaining melted butter, cream and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat a nonstick skillet over low heat. Add eggs and cook, stirring continuously with a spatula, until just set and no longer runny. Remove from heat, add chives and transfer the skillet to oven to keep warm.
• Place a slice of toast on each plate. Divide trout mixture among toasts, spreading it to make an even platform for the scrambled eggs. Spoon the eggs in the center and top with a small spoonful of roe. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut 1/2 inch off the top of garlic to expose the cloves, and transfer bulb to a piece of parchment-lined foil. Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Wrap, and bake until soft, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Unwrap, and let cool.
• Meanwhile, cut 36 rounds of bread using a 1 3/4-inch cookie cutter. Transfer to a baking sheet. Bake until golden around edges, about 20 minutes. Let cool.
• Squeeze garlic into a food processor. Blend until almost smooth. Add cream, 1 tablespoon oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Spread 1/2 teaspoon garlic cream onto each toast, and top with trout and cornichons. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Whisk eggs in large bowl to blend. Add trout, cream cheese, green onions, and chopped dill. Season lightly with salt and generously with pepper; stir to mix.
• Melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add egg mixture and stir slowly until eggs just hold together and are cooked through but still moist, about 4 minutes. Divide egg mixture among 4 plates. Garnish with dill sprigs, if desired, and serve.
