Smoked Perch Soup
Ingredients:
- 150 g smoked perch
- 150 g fresh perch fillet
- 1 onion
- Oil for frying
- 1 liter of water
- 6 tbsp cornflour (cornstarch)
- 2 dl cream
- Fresh dill, chopped
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Lemon juice
Preparation:
Finely chop the onion and sauté it in a bit of oil until translucent.
Add the water and fresh perch fillets, then let the soup simmer for about 10 minutes.
Mix the cornflour with a little cold water until smooth and stir it into the soup. Bring the soup back to a boil so it thickens slightly.
Add the smoked perch and the cream, heat briefly but do not boil.
Stir in the chopped dill and season with salt, black pepper, and a splash of lemon juice.
Serve hot and enjoy!
