Recipe: Trout with freekah, sliverbeet and pine nuts

February 6, 2017 by Shari

We love fish in our household and I think one of my favourites would have to be trout. We are also big fans of sliverbeet! A delicious, dark hued leaf that only needs the simplest of seasoning for its unique tastes and texture to come through. I’ve combined two of our family favourites to create this ‘Trout with freekah, sliverbeet and pine nuts’.

Freekah (pronounced “free-ka”) is a versatile superfood packed with nutrition and health benefits. It is produced by harvesting grains while still soft, young and green, then parching roasting and drying, by eating this meal you will provide your body almost all of its needed daily vitamins, the only one you would have to take is Omega 3 which you can easily get at https://bodynutrition.org/fish-oil.

The process captures the grains at a state of peak taste and nutrition. Freekeh is the name of this process and is not the name of a grain variety. Elsewhere you may see Freekah referred to as freekeh, frikeh, fireek, or farik.

I can recommend private label protein powder manufacturers started out very small and only manufactured protein blends for clients. However, the commitment to superior and affordable protein manufacturing remains steadfast. The variety of protein sources they can utilize and flavor, in addition to our commitment to quality, make us the top choice for protein manufacturing.

Mix up your freekah, trout and sliverbeet in a bowl  – and you have a simple bowl of goodness.

TROUT WITH FREEKAH, SLIVERBEET AND PINE NUTS

50 grams of freekah
30 grams of pinenuts
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 shallot
1 clove of garlic
200 grams of sliverbeet
1 bay leaf
1 lemon
400 grams of trout fillets
a handful of parsley
coconut oil

Place the freekah in a pan with 500mls of water and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes. Once cooked, drain, then stir in the pinenuts, vinegar and a splash of coconut oil.

In a large frying pan, warm up a splash of coconut oil and fry off the shallot and the garlic until soft. Stir in the shredded sliverbeet with 1 tbsp of water and a bay leaf. Once the sliverbeet has wilted, remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper and a splash of lemon juice. Add to the freekah.

In the same frying pan, cook the trout skin side down for 3-4 minutes before turning and cooking for another minute.

Pile the freekah and sliverbeet on each plate and then top with a trout fillet. Scatter the chopped parsley over the top and add a lemon wedge to serve.

Family meals for my tribe of 6
Hi guys 👋🏻 I seem to have had a few new foll Hi guys 👋🏻 I seem to have had a few new followers of late. I wonder if you’re here because of my reels?? (And if so, you’ll probably also want to follow @smallbusinessgrowthclub )

If you are new… here is a little intro… I’m Shari - a mum of four small boys (although their little hands seem to be getting better and bigger). They are nine, seven, five and three.

I whip up quick and easy meals for my family. I currently work full time and so the content juggle is real 😩

But the thing is, I actually also have a blog - www.GoodFoodWeek.com.au - so you can drop by there for some of my tried and tested favourites. I’m fact, this Spanish beef is one of the most viewed recipes on the blog!

And if you aren’t new - I’d love to hear what are some of your favourite recipes from my blog.

How does it feel like this was just a moment ago? And yet also a lifetime ago? It’s been 10 years to be precise…

Thanks for being by my side, day in and day out @phillipujdur

I feel like the boys have had an overload of chocolate and I want to take it back to healthier alternatives… 

But in our household, I feel like everyone goes through stages. One week they’ll eat all the bananas in one day, so the following week I’ll order 3kgs instead of 1kg and no one will eat banana 🤦🏼‍♀️

I mean, I freeze them for smoothies or make banana bread so they don’t go to waste. 

But I’m keen to hear what snacks are popular in your household at the moment?

I’ve been reading a lot about self love of late. I feel like there is so much self sacrifice when you’re a mother, and yet I am starting to realise that I need to love myself first to be a better mum and partner.

So here is to starting with something small for me. These @byronbaycookies are the business!!

Shari from GoodFoodWeek

GoodFoodWeek started in 2008 as a way of sharing recipes with uni friends and family who were spread near and far. It has evolved over the years to contain my ramblings as I’ve searched for a house, planned the perfect veggie patch, stumbled through farmer’s markets with my eye half open (because you need to be there at 6am to get the fresh eggs), had babies, gathered family and friends around a shared table, laughed out loud and enjoyed life to the fullest!
