Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:

For trout with dates,

follow the recipe as for Trout with harissa & puréed dates, omitting the date purée and adding 150 g soft, pitted dates to the tagine just before the harissa and trout chunks. Pour over the juice of 1 lemon and enough water to just cover the fish and continue to cook as for Trout with harissa & puréed dates.
