Michelle's Freefrom Smoked Trout with Warm Potatoes

Corn, egg, gluten, lactose, milk, nut, peanut, sesame, soya & wheat free

A light and simple dish for a light lunch or for a starter. It is very nice entirely cold – but even nicer if the potatoes are warm. You could substitute aniseeds for the fennel seeds and two sticks of celery for the head of fennel.
