2 brown trout, scaled, gutted, cleaned
1 tbsp olive oil

1.Heat the butter in a pan over a medium heat.
2.Add the onion, garlic and mushrooms and fry for 3-4 minutes, until the onion is soft, then season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
3.Place the mixture into a sieve to drain off any excess moisture. Press lightly to ensure as much liquid is removed as possible.
