How to make red fish gravlax:

Directions

Beets can be either fresh or boiled. I liked using a fresh ones. It needs to be peeled and grated coarsely.
Place a piece of fish in a suitable container, sprinkle and rub with salt and sugar on all sides.
Then place the fish skin side down and spread the surface with grated horseradish or horseradish sauce.
Make a layer of beets on top.
Sprinkle with coarsely chopped fresh dill, lemon zest, and sprinkle with alcohol. It is recommended to place the fish under pressure. You can put in a smaller container and something in it as a load, but you can do without it.
Salting time – two days in the refrigerator. Drain the liquid from the prepared salted fish and remove the vegetables with herbs, remove the skin and bones. Use gravlax (graavilochi) of red fish for sandwiches and salads.
