Trout With Almonds - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 medium size trout (1 to 1 1/2 lb.)
3/4 c. flour
2/3 c. butter, melted
1/2 c. heavy cream
2/3 c. toasted, slivered almonds
salt and pepper to taste
1 thinly sliced lemon

Preparation

Clean, wash and scale trout.
Dry thoroughly and roll lightly in flour.
Melt the butter in a frying pan.
When it is hot, but not brown, put in trout.
Cook over low heat 5 to 7 minutes; turn carefully and cook on other side for the same length of time. When golden brown, salt and pepper them and lay them carefully on a heated serving platter.
Add cream to the butter remaining in pan; mix rapidly and add almonds.
Stir carefully so that the almonds will not be broken and heat again just to the boiling point.
Do not boil sauce.
Spoon sauce over trout; add thin rounds of lemon and serve immediately.
