Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a delicate sour cream sauce for fried fish. Cut the cucumber into small pieces or grate it. Peel the garlic cloves and grind in a mortar or a special press. Chop the dill finely, first removing the thick stems from the twigs. Put vegetables and herbs in sour cream, season with dried or fresh lemon zest, salt and whisk well.
Step 2
Make an original fried fish potato sauce. Thoroughly scrub the potatoes from dirt, dip in boiling salted water and boil until tender in their uniform. Let the root vegetables cool, gently peel off the peel and crush the tubers with a crush or blender so that there are no lumps. Free the garlic from the husk, crush it in any way into a gruel and add to the puree. Dilute it with a mixture of olive oil and vinegar and add salt to taste.
Step 3
Stew a delicious creamy cheese sauce with mushrooms for fried fish. Pour the oil from the skillet in which the fish was fried into a saucepan and place over moderate heat. Remove the shirt from the onion, cut into cubes and brown until golden. Cut the mushrooms lengthwise into slices, stir in onions and cook for another 5-7 minutes. Gradually add sliced butter, cream and noble cheese there. Simmer the sauce until it has a gooey consistency. Then sprinkle with pepper, nutmeg, thyme and salt as needed.
Step 4
Cook hot tomato sauce for fried fish. Place the tomato quarters in a saucepan, add water and bring to a boil over high heat. Then reduce the temperature to the minimum and simmer the vegetables for 15 minutes. Cool the resulting semi-liquid mass and rub it through a fine mesh sieve. Remove the seeds from the chili pepper, grate, grind with coriander and salt and mix with tomato paste. Add chopped cilantro and some more salt if not enough.
Step 5
Combine lemon juice with vinegar in a glass jar for a simple lemon sauce for fried fish, add salt, sugar and peppers and leave under the lid until the bulk products dissolve. Pour vegetable oil into a bowl, close tightly again and shake several times.
