Add 2 more tablespoons oil. Once hot, add remaining potatoes and fry 1 more large pancake. 3. Add crème fraîche and mayonnaise to a second medium bowl. Gently fold in trout, paprika and chives. 4. Thinly slice or shave fennel crosswise into crescents. In a salad bowl, toss together fennel, arugula and parsley. Season with salt, lemon juice and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. 5. Top pancakes with trout salad and serve with green salad alongside.
