Russian Style Trout

Submitted by Kayne

"When I lived in Tampa, this was always the way I ate trout in the various Spanish restaurants. I have no idea why Spanish restaurants would serve Russian Style Trout, but they did. It was usually listed as Russian Trout, or Trout Ruski. It's really good!!!!"
