Method
step 1
Boil the potatoes in a large pan of salted water for about 15 mins. Drain well in a colander and allow them to steam dry for 5 mins.
step 2
To make the dressing: mix the mustard, olive oil and vinegar with some seasoning. Stir in the spring onions, then pour the mixture over the warm potatoes and allow to cool.
step 3
To make the smoking mixture, split the tea bags and empty the leaves into a bowl with the sugar and rice. Line a deep roasting tin with foil, tip the smoking mix on top and cover with another piece of foil. Place the tin onto the hob over a medium heat until it starts to smoke a little.
step 4
Once you see smoke escaping, put the trout on top with a little bit of seasoning and cover with more foil, trapping the smoke inside. Lower the heat and leave to smoke for 20-22 mins until the trout is cooked – it should flake away from the bone when it is done.
step 5
Add the rocket to the potato salad and gently stir to coat in the dressing. Divide between 4 plates and serve with the trout.
