More Tasty Diabetic Cooking Ideas Smoked Trout

Greetings; fellow diabetic foodies. I found this recipe on the

 Tasting Table blog. This is so good. Even though potatoes are not a good item for us to eat, with only 6 little potatoes in this recipe it evens out when you break  this into 6 portions. My cousin Peggy makes a mean Trout Dip that is diabetic friendly.

 I will post her recipe in time for the holiday’s. She makes this dip for the muchee time before the holiday meal begins. I will have that up in a few days.  This will also be posted on my blog. This picture is good enough to eat.

 Enjoy BL

 



Smoked Trout, Celery and Potato Salad

Recipe adapted from Renee Erickson, The Walrus and the Carpenter, Seattle

INGREDIENTS

6 fingerling potatoes, halved lengthwise

⅓ cup water

⅓ cup white wine vinegar

⅓ cup golden raisins

⅛ teaspoon red-pepper flakes

6 celery ribs, thinly sliced on the bias, leaves reserved

1 cup loosely packed flat-leaf parsley

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon plus 1½ teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

½ pound skinless smoked trout, broken into small pieces

DIRECTIONS

1. Place the potatoes in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Simmer over medium-high heat until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife, about 12 minutes. Drain and refrigerate the potatoes until you're ready to assemble the salad.

2. In a small saucepan, bring the water and vinegar to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the raisins and red-pepper flakes. Cover and let the raisins plump for 10 minutes. Drain the raisins.

3. In a large bowl, toss the celery with the celery leaves, potatoes, raisins and parsley. Add the olive oil and lemon juice, season with salt and pepper and toss well. Divide the salad among 4 plates or serve family-style on a large platter. Scatter the pieces of trout over the salad and serve immediately.
