Trout Stuffed With Dates
MAKE IT SHINE!
ADD YOUR PHOTO
This is a North African version of trout in foil packets. The spices, combined with the dates and rice, are a wonderful combo and the aroma is divine! This is also good if you use banana leaves to wrap the trout. The leaves give it a slightly different flavor, but it works. Try a side of Saffron Rice (my recipe #502997) but use almonds in place of the pistachios.
