Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Pull out a medium frying pan, a small bowl & a grater

Make the black garlic marinade

  • Using the back of a knife, crush the black garlic into a paste. Finely chop or grate the fresh garlic. Zest and halve the lime
  • In the small bowl combine the black garlic, fresh garlic, honey, chilli paste (for those who'd like the heat) and the zest and juice from the lime. Mix well and season with salt and pepper

Roast the trout

  • Season the trout with salt, then place (skin-side down) onto the lined baking tray. Drizzle with 1 tsp oil and roast for 15 mins
  • After 15 mins, coat the trout in the black garlic marinade and return to the oven for a final 5 mins, until cooked through

Stir-fry the veg

  • Thinly slice the pepper. Trim and cut the broccoli into thirds
  • Heat the medium frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pepper and broccoli and cook for 5-7 mins, until softened. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the pan, cover to keep warm and set aside

Heat the rice

  • Reheat the frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the rice and break it up with a wooden spoon. Add a splash of water and cook for 2-3 mins, until piping hot

Plate up

  • Check your fish is cooked through; it should be steaming hot, opaque and separate easily with a fork
  • Share the black garlic trout between bowls, with the rice and stri-fried veg alongside. Drizzle over the orange miso dressing
