Yield Makes 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon pareve margarine
2 pounds halibut fillets, skinned and boned
1 pound salmon fillets, skinned and boned
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 medium Spanish onions, diced
4 large eggs
2 cups cold water
6 tablespoons matzoh meal
1 tablespoon salt, or to taste
2 teaspoons freshly ground white pepper
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons snipped dill, plus more for garnish
2 large carrots, peeled
parsley, for garnish
prepared red horseradish for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a 12-cup bundt pan with the margarine.
  • Cut the fish into large chunks, and place in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse about 20 times, do not puree, but grind fine. Place in the bowl of an electric mixer.
  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan, and sauté the onions over medium-low heat until soft and transparent. Let cool.
  • To the fish mixture, add the onions, eggs, 2 cups of cold water, matzoh meal, salt, white pepper, sugar and lemon juice. Beat in the electric mixer at medium speed, using a paddle attachment, for about 10 minutes. Add the dill, and grate in the carrots; mix well.
  • Pour the mixture into the greased bundt pan. Smooth the top with a spatula, and cover with foil. Place a large pan filled with water which is almost boiling and comes at least halfway up the sides of the bundt pan.
  • Bake in the oven for 1 hour, or until the center is solid. Cool for 5 minutes, or until mold is cool to the touch. Run a knife around the edges. Place a flat serving plate on top, and then flip over, inverting the mold onto the plate. If the mold does not come out easily, give the plate a shake. You should feel or hear it give.
  • Refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Slice as you would a torte, and serve as an appetizer. Garnish with the parsley and remaining dill, and serve with red horseradish.

Tips:

  • Use the freshest fish possible. This will ensure that your gefilte fish terrine has the best flavor and texture.
  • Soak the matzo meal in water before adding it to the fish mixture. This will help to bind the ingredients together and prevent the terrine from becoming too dry.
  • Season the fish mixture generously with salt, pepper, and other spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the terrine.
  • Be careful not to overmix the fish mixture. Overmixing can make the terrine tough.
  • Bake the terrine in a water bath. This will help to keep it moist and prevent it from drying out.
  • Let the terrine cool completely before serving. This will help it to set and firm up.
