At a glance
You're looking at a beautiful two-part dish that comes together nicely for an impressive appetizer. The marinated trout needs a three-hour head start in the fridge, while you spend about 35 minutes boiling potatoes, mixing dough, and frying golden pancakes. Once everything's ready, assembly is quick and easy—just stack your pancakes with silky soured cream, tender trout slices, and fresh dill for a restaurant-worthy bite.
