Instructions
Step 1
In a large skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of the butter over medium-high heat. When the foam begins to subside, add the potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned all over, 8–10 minutes. Add the remaining butter and the onion, and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens, about 10 minutes more. Add the trout, heavy cream, dill, cayenne, and garlic; stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and black pepper. Continue cooking, using a spatula to turn the hash in large scoops and loosening any browned bits until the potatoes are browned and crispy in places, about 12 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, make the horseradish sauce: In a small bowl, stir together the crème fraîche and horseradish to combine.
Step 3
To serve, divide the hash between 2 plates, top with dollops of the horseradish sauce, and sprinkle with chives and dill.Serve hot, with lemon wedges for squeezing.
