Royal Fish Roll
4 servings
65 minutes
The royal fish roll is a true gastronomic masterpiece inspired by Italian traditions. At its core is tender fish fillet transformed into exquisite minced meat that gains depth of flavor from aromatic spices: coriander, fennel, paprika, and thyme. Vegetables marinated in lemon juice add freshness, while spinach enriches the dish. Stewing in hot water preserves the roll's juiciness, and the final bake with egg white creates an appetizing crust. This roll is perfect for festive dinners, impressing guests with its refined taste and elegant presentation. The combination of sea notes, spicy aromas, and light citrus freshness makes it an unforgettable treat.
