Creamy horseradish dressing gives this comforting trout and potato salad a tangy twist.
8 mini potatoes
1/4 cup sour cream
3 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp mayonnaise
1 1/2 tbsp prepared horseradish
1 tsp poppy seeds, (optional)
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
6 cups coarsely torn watercress
1/2 fennel bulb, thinly sliced
1/4 cup parsley leaves
1/4 cup dill fronds
1/4 cup chopped chives, cut into 1-in. pieces
300 g hot-smoked trout
3 radishes, thinly sliced
1/2 cup pickled red onions
Cover potatoes with water in a small pot set over medium-high. Boil until just fork-tender, 8 to 10 min. Drain and let stand until cool enough to handle. Cut in half.
Whisk sour cream with lemon juice, mayo, horseradish, poppy seeds, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
Combine watercress, fennel, parsley, dill, chives and potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with half of the dressing, tossing well to coat. Arrange salad mixture on a large platter. Top with large pieces of trout, radishes and pickled onions. Drizzle with remaining dressing. Season with pepper.
