Step-by-step cooking process

The cooking process includes several stages:

1. The process should begin by preparing the fish heads. Each one needs to be cut into two identical parts, after which the gills must be carefully removed. Next, you need to thoroughly rinse the pieces under cold running water. They must be processed until the liquid becomes clear.
2. The next step is to tackle the vegetables. You need to peel the roots of celery and parsley, as well as onions and carrots. Next, all prepared components should be cut. Roots - in large cubes, vegetables - in smaller pieces.
3. Place the prepared fish heads in a large saucepan, add cold water and cook. After the liquid boils, it is necessary to remove the foam from its surface in order to obtain a clear broth.
4. Next, you can reduce the heat on the stove and pour in pieces of roots and vegetables. And after about another 10-15 minutes of cooking, add bay leaves, peppercorns, and salt to taste.
5. It takes about another half hour to cook the aspic base. Afterwards, remove the onions and roots, add the greens. The latter must first be washed, dried and chopped. There are still 5-6 minutes of cooking left.
6. You will need to cool the fish directly in the broth. When it cools down, you need to disassemble the pieces and remove the bones from them. Only the pulp will be sent to the filling molds. If desired, you can also add pieces of boiled fillet, any vegetables, and legumes for decoration.
7. The broth must be thoroughly strained. If desired, it can be salted to taste.
8. Add gelatin to the still warm broth, mix well, and then heat the mass. Then it must be filtered through the finest sieve.
9. The resulting broth needs to be poured over the fish pieces.

All that remains is to put the filler in a cool place. It is best to first place the treat on the balcony, and only then move it to the bottom shelf of the refrigerator.

How to serve a dish

The finished aspic is served chilled as a snack. It needs to be cut into neat portions and placed on a large plate. You can decorate the treat with fresh herbs and miniature pickled cucumbers.

1. There should be a lot of onions in this recipe - approximately the same amount as fish fillets. Vegetables need to be peeled, after which 2 heads are cut into miniature pieces. Next, fry the onion in hot oil until soft and light golden brown.
2. It is necessary to carefully remove the skin from the fish without damaging it. In this case, the meat must be separated from the ridge and passed through a meat grinder along with the silver carp fillet.
3. Both the cookies and the bun should be poured with milk and allowed to soak. Then squeeze lightly and add to the minced meat along with all the eggs, salt and spices.

5. Next you need to stuff the fish skin with the resulting mass. The workpiece must be carefully wrapped with gauze.
6. Carrots, beets and remaining onions must be peeled and cut into slices. These ingredients should be poured onto the bottom of the cauldron, the fish backbone and the workpiece itself in gauze should be placed on top.
7. The products need to be filled with water so that it lightly covers the fish. The treat will simmer for approximately 80-90 minutes. on low heat.

Allow the stuffed carcass to cool slightly before serving.

How to serve a dish

The finished treat can be decorated with herbs, lemon slices, and olives. First, be sure to remove the gauze from it and cut the fish into neat portioned pieces with a sharp knife so that the filling remains inside.

If you couldn’t find ready-made fillets for silver carp dishes, you can cut the carcass yourself.

To do this, first of all you need to remove the scales from the fish, then remove the insides, cut off the head and fins. Next, you need to use a sharp knife to walk along the ridge, dividing the ear into 2 halves. Carefully insert the knife between the skin and the meat, then remove the fillet with a smooth movement. The last thing you need to do is remove the rib bones and spine. You can prepare silver carp deliciously in different ways: in crispy breading, in the form of aspic, with mayonnaise and soy sauce, etc.
