Fish stewed in sour cream

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   Take products from the suggested list.

2. STEP 2

   

   First, start cutting the fish. Clean it, remove the entrails, head, tail, fins. Rinse well and fillet. Cut the fillet into portions.

3. STEP 3

   

   Peel and cut the onions into half rings.

4. STEP 4

   

   Heat a little oil (adjust the amount of oil according to the fat content of the fish; if the fish is fatty (trout, salmon or mackerel, as in the proposed recipe), then take the minimum amount of oil. Place the onion in the pan and fry it a little.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place pieces of fish on the onion and fry a little along with the onion.

6. STEP 6

   

   Turn over to the other side, using a spatula to grab the onion. And lightly fry the other side again - just “seal” the fish.

7. STEP 7

   

   Add sour cream, salt to taste, pepper, cover with a lid and simmer at low simmer for 25 minutes (again, depends on what kind of fish you have).

8. STEP 8

   

   Fish stewed in sour cream is ready. Serve it with a potato side dish or simply with fresh bread.

Great recipe for fish stewed in sour cream! I actually cooked it a little differently, but I used this recipe as a basis. Instead of whole fish, I decided to use tilapia fillets. First, I fried pieces of fish (I had 300 grams of clean fillet), then removed the fish and fried a whole onion in the same frying pan. Then I put everything in a frying pan, added much more sour cream (250 g) and simmered under a closed lid for 15 minutes. This time was more than enough. The fish turned out very tender and tasty! Served it on the table along with mashed potatoes and a salad of fresh vegetables. Definitely, the recipe went into my piggy bank!

The fish stewed in sour cream turned out very tender and tasty. Lightly salted and peppered the pieces of fatty sturgeon. I fried the onion in a frying pan and then sealed the fish on both sides. In a separate bowl, I mixed sour cream (I used 25%, thick) with filtered water to make it a little thinner. Added dill, parsley, cilantro and fish seasoning. I poured this sauce over the fish and onions. Simmered for 30 minutes. It turned out very fragrant. I really love cilantro, the taste with it is simply masterpiece. But this is not for everybody. I’ve never cooked this way, but thanks to your recipe I’ll cook it often. Thank you!
