Recipe for making a potato appetizer with beets and herring

Step-by-step instructions:

1. Wash the potatoes, peel them, cut them into 1 cm thick slices. Transfer the vegetables to a deep bowl, pour in the sunflower oil, add salt and spices to taste. I used potato seasoning.

2. Stir the vegetables so that they are evenly coated with oil, salt and spices. Place the potato slices on a baking sheet or in a heat-resistant baking dish. Place the vegetables in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 15 minutes.

3. After the specified time, the potatoes will be baked and soft. Transfer the vegetable slices to a flat plate, cool to room temperature.

4. Wash the beets, prick them with a fork, put them in a baking bag, and tie it on both sides. Put the plate with the beets in the microwave. Cook the vegetables at maximum power for 10-15 minutes, depending on the size of the beets.

5. Cool the vegetables to room temperature, peel them, and chop them on a coarse grater. Add mayonnaise, salt, and ground black pepper to taste to the beets, and mix.

6. Put the beet mixture on the potato slices.

7. Cut off the head, tail, and fins from the herring. Remove the entrails and black film, and separate the fish into fillets. Peel the herring from the skin and bones, cut the fillet into portioned pieces 2-3 cm wide. Put the fish pieces on top of the beet mixture.

8. Peel the red onion and cut into thin rings. Place the onion rings on the fish. Decorate the appetizer with French mustard and herbs.

9. Serve the appetizing potato appetizer with beets and herring immediately after cooking. Bon appetit!
