I learned to cook this simple recipe back in school. We can say that this is where my culinary journey began. I remember that in our home library there was a large cookbook, in which many recipes had photographs of ready-made dishes. I really liked the presentation of the appetizers - they were, in fact, complex cuts of vegetables, a prototype of modern carving techniques. I enjoyed studying the recipes, tried to prepare simple salads, and every time I did it better and better.
And when we took home economics and cooking classes during labor lessons, we brought food to class and immediately prepared our culinary “masterpieces.” Of course, these were simple dishes, but how nice it was to make them with your own hands and then treat them to our boys, who at that time were learning carpentry or plumbing.
This salad of herring with potatoes and onions is really so simple that it can be prepared by a culinary beginner, and consists of only a few ingredients: boiled potatoes in their skins, onions and lightly salted herring cut into slices. Oh, how delicious it is, let me tell you! And if you top the appetizer with delicious oil, such as pumpkin or sesame oil, and add spices to taste, you’ll get an excellent simple dish.
It is only important to buy a good herring, so that it is not very salty, has elastic flesh and an appetizing smell, because the taste of the entire dish depends on this. If desired, you can also add finely chopped parsley, dill and green onions. You can also prepare one similar to this one.

- potato tuber – 3-4 pcs.,
- lightly salted herring – 1 pc.,
- onion – 1 pc.,
- salt - to taste,
- spices to taste,
- fresh herbs (optional),
- vegetable oil - for dressing.

Step-by-step recipe with photos:

First, boil the potato tubers directly in their skins. To do this, first select undamaged tubers of the same size and thoroughly wash them to remove sand and other contaminants. Then fill them with hot water, add salt (a little more than usual) and cook until tender, but do not overcook. Then drain the hot water and place the potatoes in cold water for a couple of minutes - this way the tubers cool faster and the skin is easier to remove.
Cut the peeled potatoes into strips or cubes.




Now let's deal with fish. We cut off the head and tail, be sure to cut the tummy and select the insides. Then we remove the backbone from the carcass and carefully, and most importantly, thoroughly, remove all the bones.
Cut the herring fillet into small slices.




Finely chop the peeled onion.




Finely chop the greens.

Season the herring salad with potatoes and onions with oil, add spices and mix. Salt to taste. But it is worth remembering that the herring is already quite salty. Try making this one again.
