Smoking the Trout
- Gently smoke the trout using warm smoke at around 120°C.
- Check that the oven is holding this temperature and adjust if needed.

- Allow it to smoke slowly until the core temperature reaches 45°C.
- This process will take approximately 1 hour.

Preparing the Potato Salad
- While the trout is smoking, boil the potatoes in salted water with the skin on until tender.
- The cooking time will depend on the size of the potatoes.
- Once cooked, allow them to cool, then peel and cut them into small dice.
- Finely chop the chives and mix them into the sour cream.
- Season with salt and black pepper.
- Add the diced potatoes and mix until evenly combined.

Finishing the Trout

Serving
- Place the potato salad into a serving bowl.
- Carefully cut the trout along the back, remove the skin, and gently separate the meat from the bones.
- The fish should be very soft and juicy.
- Place the trout on top of the potato salad.
