Ingredients (6-8 servings):

  • 2 puff pastry sheets

  • 1 white onion

  • 1 red onion

  • 200g herring

  • ½ dl finely chopped chives

  • 100g aged cheese

  • 4 dl milk

  • 4 eggs

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1/2 tsp pepper

  • 6 black olives


How to:

Turn the oven on to 200 C.

Chopp up the onions and fry them until they’re soft. Cut the fish into bite sized pieces and mix them together with the onion, chives and cheese and add into a casserole dish. In a bowl whisk the milk, eggs, salt and pepper and pour the mixture over the fish. Then roll out one of the puff pastries and trim any access so it will fit your dish. Cut about ⅓ of the other pastry and roll it out cut it into a fish shape. Use the rest of the pastry to make the stripes, eyes and scale. Coat with an egg wash and decorate with black olives cut in half.  Put the dish in the oven for about 20-30 minutes until the pastry is nice and golden.
