Stuffed pike is a delicious expensive dish that is an integral part of the festive table. In Russia, it was customary to stuff pike for weddings and other major holidays.
Instructions
Step 1
Perhaps the easiest way to decorate a stuffed pike is to decorate with mayonnaise. Take any mayonnaise in a soft pack that has a threaded “neck” at the tip. Press on the pack of sauce and "draw" beautiful patterns on the fish (the mayonnaise will gently come out of the package through a thin neck). Draw flowers or just wavy lines. Make them bulky by lifting the mayonnaise bag up.
Step 2
Garnish the stuffed pike with vegetables. Take a cucumber and a sharp knife. Begin making zigzag cuts as you go in a circle through the vegetable. Deepen your incisions gradually. When you've cut a large enough section of the vegetable, separate the halves. Before you get a beautiful flower with thin sharp petals. Place an olive or olive tree inside the flower. Keep in mind that pickled cucumbers are easier to cut in shape than fresh ones. You can also make a similar flower from a fresh tomato.
Step 3
Use a sharp knife to peel the apple, separating the skin from the pulp. Try to cut the peel into an even, solid strip. The longer the "shavings" turn out, the more beautiful the decoration will be. Once you've peeled the entire apple, wrap the peel in a neat flower. Let it gradually expand from the middle, increasing in diameter.
Step 4
If you are serving pike cut into portions, fold those portions into a fish shape. Place lemon wedges between the slices. Such a layer will be both a decor and a guarantee of hygiene in your dish.
Step 5
Peel the purple onion. Divide it into thin half rings. Place the onion wedges on a platter, guiding the half rings to one side. Lay them in a circle so that the "rays" come out of the common center. Place an olive or olive in the center of the flower.
Step 6
Take raw or boiled carrots and peel them. Using a curly knife, cut off five longitudinal lines from its surface. After that, start cutting the carrots into circles with an ordinary knife. You will get bright beautiful flowers.
