Make this delicious gefilte fish for Passover. Enjoy it hot or cold.

To complete this How-To you will need:

2 sliced onions
2 sliced carrots
6 c. water
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. sugar
2 minced onions
1 minced carrot
2 tbsp. minced dill
1 lb. minced whitefish
1 lb. minced salmon
½ c. cold water
¼ c. matzo meal
2 tbsp. salt
1 tbsp. pepper
1 tbsp. sugar
Grated horseradish
A large pot with lid
A large bowl
A hand mixer
A slotted spoon
A food processor (optional)

Step 1: Prepare stock

Combine the onions, sliced carrots, water, salt, and sugar in the large pot.

Step 2: Bring to boil

Bring the stock to a boil; then reduce the heat to simmer for 15 to 20 minutes with the lid on.

Step 3: Combine ingredients

Combine the remaining ingredients in the large bowl. With the hand mixer, beat the mixture on medium speed for 20 minutes.

Tip: Alternatively, combine it in a food processor for 3 to 4 minutes.

Step 4: Moisten hands

Moisten your hands with cold water and shape the mixture into golf-ball sized balls. Carefully place them the stock.

Step 5: Simmer

Simmer for one and a half to two hours, partially covered. Remove the fish balls from the broth with the slotted spoon.

Step 6: Garnish

Garnish each piece with a carrot slice and serve with the horseradish.
