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.

  1. Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9. Season the trout with sea salt and black pepper. Heat a frying pan with 1/2 tsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the trout (skin-side down) and cook for 3 mins. Flip and cook for another 3 mins, until golden. Transfer to a lined baking tray and bake for a further 15 mins, until cooked through.
  2. Finely chop or grate the ginger. Peel the carrot into ribbons. Thinly slice the pepper. Halve the orange and lime. Roughly chop the peanuts. Make the dressing; squeeze the juice from the orange and lime into a large mixing bowl. Add the peanut butter, tamari, ginger, honey and then stir to combine.
  3. Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted hot water to a boil. Add the noodles and sugar snaps, gently separate with a fork, then boil for 3-4 mins, until cooked. Drain, then rinse under cold water.
  4. Toss the cooked noodles, sugar snaps, carrots and pepper into the dressing bowl.
  5. Check your fish is cooked through; it should be steaming hot, opaque and separate easily with a fork. Cook for longer if necessary.
  6. Serve the noodle salad topped with trout. Garnish with the peanuts and drizzle over any remaining dressing left in the bowl.
