Preparation
- Step 1
To make the fritters, boil the potato whole until almost tender, about 25 minutes; peel and grate. Flake the trout and combine with the potato in a medium bowl. Mix in the egg, parsley, salt and pepper. Using a well-rounded tablespoon as measure, form the mixture into 12 balls. Flatten them slightly and coat with the bread crumbs.
- Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the fritters and cook until well browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Keep warm.
- Step 3
To make the salad, heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the watercress and stir just until wilted, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and toss with the lemon juice, salt and pepper. Divide among 4 plates and place 3 of the fritters on each plate. Serve immediately.
