Gourmet Gefilte Fish Paté
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil or 3 tablespoons canola oil
- 4 medium sweet onions, peeled and finely chopped (about 2 lbs)
- 1 1/2 lbs white fish fillets, bones removed, finely ground
- 1 1/2 lbs pike, fillet bones removed, finely ground
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups cold water
- 6 tablespoons matzo meal
- 1 tablespoon coarse salt
- 2 teaspoons fresh ground white pepper
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 large carrots, peeled and grated
- fresh flat leaf parsley, for garnish
- red horseradish, for serving
- white horseradish, for serving
- Have your fish store or monger grind the fillets or grind them yourself in a food processor or meat grinder; do not puree, but grind fine.
- Saute the diced onions in the oil until soft and translucent but not brown; remove from heat and let cool.
- Preheat oven to 325u0b0F.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachement, combine fish, cooled onions, eggs, water, matzoh meal, salt, pepper, and sugar.
- Beat on medium speed for 15 minutes.
- Add grated carrots and mix until well combined.
- Transfer mixture to 12-cup bundt pan, smoothing the top with a psatula.
- Place bundt pan in a larger baking dish 2" high with water. (I place the container of water in stove first and then the bundt pan, so as to avoid burning myself and/or spilling on the floor!).
- Transfer to oven and bake for 1 hour.
- Cover bundt pan with parchment paper-lined foil and continue baking until center feels solid when a wooden skewer is inserted into the center, about 1 hour longer.
- Remove bundt pan from oven and let stand 5 minutes.
- Invert onto a flat serving plate and refrigerate overnight.
- Slice (as you would a torte) and serve garnished with parsley and the condiments in separate bowls.
