The commitee's sill recepie


Yes, we all loved it on the 2009 Christmas function!! And here is the recipe!
It's is very easy to make, but please note, it should be made 4 days in advance.
Ingredients:
-2trays of Richter's Herring in Canola oil, 250g (see picture).
-1 onion
-1 red onion
-10 allspice granules
-2 bay leafs
-dill - optional.
-1 carrot
-1.5 deciliter water
-5 tbs white vinegar
-1 deciliter sugar

Mix the water, vinegar and sugar in a pot and bring to boil. Stand to cool.

Rinse and dry the herring fillets carefully a couple of times , you should try to remove as much as possible of the canola oil.
Cut the herring fillets into 2cm wide pieces.
Peel and slice the onions thinly.
Slice the carrot.
You may choose to crush the allspice granules or leave them whole.
Layer the herring pieces with spices, onions and carrots into a bowl. Add some dill if you wish (not necessary).
Pour the cold "water, vinegar and sugar" syrup into the bowl.
Let stand for at least 24hours (preferably 4days).
If the syrup goes "muddy" after a few days - just replace the syrup!

Enjoy with boiled potatoes and crisp bread!
