- STEP 1
Lay a piece of baking parchment over a piece of foil on the worksurface, and add the asparagus stems, in one layer, to the middle. Put the trout fillet on top and season. Mash the butter with the garlic, lemon zest, parsley and seasoning. Spoon onto the fish, add a slice of lemon and a squeeze of juice, and wrap the parcel up tightly. Put in a steamer basket, and steam for 15-20 minutes, until the fish is cooked through. Serve with more lemon squeezed over, if you like.
