Time 40m

Yield About 16 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons margarine
1 pound carp fillet
1 pound whitefish
Salt and white pepper to taste
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups finely ground blanched almonds
12 cups strained fish bouillon (see note)

Steps:

  • Saute the onion in margarine until soft. Combine with the carp and whitefish and chop finely with steel blade in food processor (or chop by hand). Season mixture with salt and pepper.
  • Add eggs and mix well to blend. Blend in almonds.
  • With wet hands shape the fish mixture into ovals, using two tablespoons for each.
