Out with the trout...

Okay, I confess that I didn't really catch this trout myself (although I did email the photo to my younger brother, an aspiring fisherman, in an attempt to impress him with my catch!) I actually just bought the trout at our local Mercadona supermarket. It's part of my strategy to "eat oily fish more regularly" as they're rich in omega-3 fatty acids which (even though that sounds kind of disgusting) are allegedly helpful because they contribute to lubricating joints and hindering inflammation for arthritis sufferers. That may not be the totally scientific explanation.... I think it's the BBC news version. Anyway, as I've always preferred fish to meat since childhood, the idea of eating more trout, salmon, mackerel and fish in general isn't a challenging one to me. Today's trout (yes, I baked it in the oven and I ate the whole fish!) was absolutely delicious. I'd rather have a fish than a steak, any day!
