Steps

  1. Place a pot with about half a liter of water on the stove. Wait for the water to boil, meanwhile remove the stems from the tomatoes and wash them. When the water boils, add the tomatoes to the pot and cook them for about two minutes.

  2. Remove the tomatoes from the water with a slotted spoon and immediately rinse them with cold water to prevent them from becoming too soft. Peel the tomatoes with a sharp knife and cut them into quarters. Remove the seeds.

  3. Clean the shallots, wash them, and slice them into thin rings. Peel the garlic and finely chop it. Thoroughly wash all the herbs, dry them, and finely chop them. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.

  4. Rinse the belly cavity of the trout under running water, then dry the trout well with kitchen paper. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze both halves.

  5. Drizzle the trout inside and out with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Prepare 4 larger pieces of aluminum foil, spread butter on the shiny side. Place one trout on each piece of foil.

  6. Fill the belly cavity of the trout with tomatoes, garlic, and shallots. Sprinkle the trout with chopped herbs and pieces of butter. Fold the foil over the fish and tightly seal the long sides. Fold both ends of each packet upwards, place the trout in the oven, and bake for about 30 minutes.

  7. Serve the baked trout on plates and present it to your guests along with the side dish.
