Trout belongs to the group of so-called lean fish, as opposed to carp, it has no fat. The meat of the trout is fragile and does not need much time to prepare. There are dozens of recipes for preparing trout, but most often it is baked in the oven or on the grill pan, and fried in oil until it is done.
