This scrumptious dish can be served with rice and seasonal vegetables.
POLOKWANE – Although they are pricey, capers are the perfect accompaniment to many dishes.
Capers are the small flower buds of the Capparis shrub, which grows in the Mediterranean and are good for adding a distinctive sour/salty flavour to many savoury dishes.
Capers are preserved a number of ways – either in salt, wine vinegar, brine or olive oil.
What’s for Dinner combines capers in a creamy sauce to pour on trout in the following recipe:
