Cook the pasta in boiling salted water until al dente. Slice the trout fillets diagonally into 1 cm (approximately 1/3 inch) wide strips. Trim the leek and fennel, rinse and cut into thin slices. Reserve the fennel fronds. Sauté the vegetables in hot butter for about 4 minutes, add the anisette and cream and simmer for 5 minutes.
