Fish Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground white-fleshed fish carp, or pike, traditionally, but I use local, fresh-caught fish
- ½ sweet onion chopped
- ½ cup fresh parsley chopped
- 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon powdered garlic
- 1 cup matzo meal approximately
- 2 eggs
Broth Ingredients:
- 12 cups 3 liters water
- 1 tablespoon cracked black pepper
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1/2 onion quartered
- 2 Bay leaves
Garnish:
- Squeeze of lemon per loaf
- 1 tablespoon mango salsa per loaf
Place the fish, onion, and parsley into a food processor and grind until smooth.
Place in a large bowl, add salt, pepper, garlic powder, eggs and matzo meal. Mix well with hands.
Form into 10-12 oval-shaped mini-loaves.
Place water, pepper, salt, onion and bay leaves into a pot and bring to a boil.
Drop in the fish loaves and cook with lid on, but allowing steam to escape, for one hour.
Place on a plate and refrigerate until serving.
Serve with a squeeze of lemon juice and topped with a spoonful of mango salsa.
