Whole BBQ Trout with Garden Herb Sauce & Charred Corn Salad

My uncle-in-law handed me two whole trout and, hand on heart, I had no real idea what to do with them. So I did the obvious thing: lemon, loads of garden herbs, loads of oil, and straight onto the coals. What came off was honestly restaurant standard, and the whole plate came together from the garden and a couple of jars. Whole fish feels fancy, but it's one of the quickest, most forgiving things you can cook outside. Gut already done by him, scales and the rest by me, and dinner was sorted in about half an hour.

Notes

The sauce is the hero. Make it first, it only gets better sitting there, and it ties the fish, the beans and the salad together. | No fish basket? No bother. Straight on the grates is the classic way. If you want insurance for the flip, two Aga toasters clamped around the fish work a treat. Just keep the handles away from the heat and wear a glove. | Crispy skin comes down to two things: dry fish and hot oiled grates. Pat the trout properly dry before it goes on. | Trust the fish, not the clock. Whole trout is lovely just cooked. Once it flakes, pull it. Push past that and it dries out. | The skeleton pull is the money move. Get it clean and it lifts away in one piece. Very satisfying, and a great shot if you're filming.
