The trout fillet is pan-fried in an oatmeal crust, which creates a wonderfully crispy crust beneath the tender, juicy flesh, falling away from the bones. In the same pan, reduce a little red wine vinegar and drizzle it over the fish. Fried leeks with bacon bits and garlic also make a delicious accompaniment.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat the oven to 150°C and process the oats in a food processor until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. Beat the egg and milk in another shallow bowl.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Drain all but 2 tablespoons of the rendered fat from the skillet into a separate bowl. Add the leek and garlic to the skillet and cook until the onions are softened, about 5 minutes. Season with parsley, bacon, salt, and black pepper to taste, and keep warm.
- Line a baking sheet with a double layer of paper towels. Dredge the trout in the oatmeal, dip in the egg mixture, and then dredge again in the oatmeal, turning to coat all sides. In another large skillet, heat the remaining bacon fat with the olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Fry the trout fillets, a few at a time, until golden brown on one side, about 3 minutes, then turn over and fry until cooked through, about 2 more minutes. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Add vinegar to the pan and bring to a boil. Serve the trout with leeks and a drizzle of vinegar dressing.
