Telnoe from carp is an elegant and refined dish of Russian cuisine, known for its tenderness and rich flavor. Historically, it originated in noble households where fish was an important part of festive feasts. This recipe uses juicy carp fillet that is minced and enriched with the aromas of celery, onion, and garlic. The addition of ginger and lime juice gives fresh citrus notes. The main feature is the combination of carp mince with whole shrimp, creating a pleasant contrast of textures. Baked to a golden crust, the dish becomes visually appealing. Served chilled and sliced thinly allows each piece to reveal its flavor. Garnishing with lemon, olives, and pomegranate adds festivity and highlights the richness of taste. This dish is perfect for a ceremonial dinner and for connoisseurs of Russian gastronomy.
