Recipe from Ilya Lazerson

Ingredients:

  • pure pollock fillet;
  • large onion;
  • three medium carrots;
  • two stalks of celery;
  • two tablespoons of sugar;
  • two tablespoons of tomato paste;
  • three tablespoons of vinegar (6%);
  • two bay leaves;
  • ten peas of black pepper;
  • frying oil;
  • flour for breading.

Cooking method:

    1. We cut onions in half rings, and carrots and celery - in strips. We put the vegetables in a bowl.
    2. We put a deep frying pan on the fire, pour oil and immediately spread the vegetables. It is not necessary to preheat the oil, as the products should just warm up.
    3. As soon as the vegetables are sizzled, we add two pinches of salt, sugar, and after 10 minutes we pour water to completely cover the contents of the pan. Add tomato paste, bay leaf, peppercorns and vinegar.
  1. Let the ingredients boil for 5 minutes, after which we taste the marinade. If necessary, add salt, keep the composition on fire for a couple of minutes and turn off the heat. The most important thing is that the vegetables in the marinade remain crispy, so that they retain more vitamins, and it’s much more pleasant to eat them.

  3. At the bottom of the refractory tray, lay out part of the marinade, then lay out the pieces of fish, which we fill with the remaining marinade on top. The main thing is that the sauce is still warm, even hot - so it penetrates the very thickness of the meat.
  4. Remove the cooled dish overnight in the refrigerator and serve the next day cold.
