Instructions
Clean the fish (scaled, eviscerated and washed), pat dry with paper towel.
Roast in the oven (375°F) on a rack until quite dry. Leave to cool.
Remove bones and any hard bits. Blend with trout and salt in a food processor until the mixture is that of breadcrumbs. Pulse until the mixture has just the right texture. Too fine, and it will not cluster when it fries; too coarse, and it will harden too much.
Bring plenty of oil in a wok to medium-high temperature. The right temperature is important. Try a first batch and adjust the heat if necessary. Too hot, the fish will burn; too cool and the collagen in the fish will not cook fast enough to hold the fish together.
Deep-fry a handful at a time. After the foaming stops, mold the fish together by pushing the fish crumbs towards each other.
Let the collagen do the work and you will see that it forms a cluster, a fish cake. When it smells cooked, flip over until golden in color.
Remove and drain. Give the oil some time to reheat and repeat this process.
For the dressing, combine the lime juice, chiles, fish sauce, and sugar.
Peel the mango and shred finely.
Combine the shallots, mango, peanuts, mint, and coriander.
Add the fish cake and large chiles when using.
Pour over the dressing and serve immediately.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are great choices for Fish. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The Skyfall Pinot Gris with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.

Skyfall Pinot Gris
Pale straw in color with notes of mango, citrus blossom and banana in the nose. On the palate a medley of tropical fruit unfolds into tangerine, mango, grapefruit, and banana flavors. These tropical notes continue throughout the long and lingering finish.
