To prepare a holiday appetizer, we need large, fatty herring.
Cut off the herring head. Cut the belly and clean it.
We cut the fish lengthwise along the spine. Remove the seeds with tweezers. We will get 2 seedless herring fillets.
Place the fillet on cling film. We got herring with caviar. Caviar can also be used to prepare this appetizer. Cut the caviar lengthwise and place it on the herring.
Let's start preparing the filling. Pre-boil the carrots for 5-7 minutes, then place them under cold water. Cut peppers, onions, carrots, eggs into small cubes. Cut the cucumbers lengthwise into thin slices.
We dilute gelatin in 40 milliliters of hot water. Don't boil! When boiled, gelatin loses its properties. We filter. Combine gelatin with sour cream and mix thoroughly.
Gelatin and sour cream should stand for approximately 10 minutes until the mass begins to thicken. Lightly salt and pepper the resulting mixture of sour cream and gelatin, season with lemon juice to taste, add carrots, onions, peppers, eggs and herbs, mix. Apply half the mixture of sour cream and vegetables onto one herring fillet.
Place cucumber slices on top.
Spread the remaining mixture of sour cream and vegetables onto the cucumbers. Cover with the second fillet.
The next day, cut it and enjoy a very tasty, impressive herring appetizer. A wonderful dish for a holiday table!
