7. 10. 2025

Take a break from the classic taste of fish and try something new.

Do you like a sour taste? Try the following recipe, which can be a great appetizer at a New Year’s Eve party, for example.

Ingredients

• carp (fish) fillets
• salt
• egg
• breadcrumbs
• fat for frying
• 1 large onion

Marinade for roasts

• 1 cup 10% vinegar
• 5 cups of water
• 1/2 – 1 cup sugar (depending on how sweet you like it)
• 1 tablespoon of salt
• 4 – 5 bay leaves
• 10 grains of black pepper
• 5-6 grains of allspice

Method

• Salt the carp and coat in egg and breadcrumbs. Fry in hot fat until golden on both sides. Set aside and let cool. If you have already baked the carp, skip frying it again and put it straight into the jars.
• Scald the jars and lids with boiling water and dry them thoroughly.
• Boil all the ingredients for the pickle.
• Cut the onion into rings and put some of them in the jars.
• Put the carp in the jars and add the onion. Pour the hot marinade so that everything is submerged.
• Place the jars upside down and let them cool. Store in the refrigerator.
• The fish needs about two days to “ripen,” then it will taste more and more vinegary every day.
