But later that day I passed the seafood store and noticed the price tag for Smoked Trout.
It was one of the cheapest items there $15/kg ($7.50/lb)!
So get it fresh from the fish shop if you live in Australia.

This recipe calls for creme fraiche.
But you might substitute with sour cream which is a very close substitute.
The version I gave my mum to taste test which she LOVED was made with sour cream.

This Potted Smoked Trout is smokey and creamy with the freshness of dill and lemon.
It spreads like a pate (but no liver!)
