What is Ala fish?

Ala fish is a freshwater trout, a mild-flavoured fish found in rivers and lakes and also raised in aquaculture. Its pale flesh is tender and flakes readily when cooked, so it benefits from gentle handling rather than prolonged cooking.

In Turkey it is commonly grilled, baked or pan-cooked and served as a main course with lemon, herbs and salad. Elsewhere, trout is often prepared in much the same way, or paired with potatoes and seasonal vegetables. With 22.5 g of protein and 2.2 g of fat per 100 g, Ala fish is a lean, protein-rich choice. For a lighter meal, bake or grill it with a little oil and serve alongside vegetables.
