Ingredients

  • 1 big herring,
  • 2 tablespoon butter,
  • 1 big apple,
  • 1 hard boiled egg,
  • lettuce

Directions

1

Slit the fish lengthwise and keep in warm water for 5-6 hours. Then wash, skin and debone the fish. Remove the head and tail but keep them.

2

Chop or grind the fish very fine. Sieve the hard boiled yolk and then mix with butter. Add the ground fish and make a paste. Then add the grated apple and mix some more.

3

Place the paste on a long serving plate and shape it like a fish. Put the head and tail where they belong. Sprinkle the finely chopped egg white on top.

4

Decorate with lettuce leaves placed around the fish paste. You can also use this paste for sandwiches.
