River Fish Soup with Potatoes

by Editorial Staff

A simple recipe for crucian fish soup. Crucian carp, like other river fish, has many bones. But what a gorgeous broth the river fish gives! Therefore, the fish soup from river fish turns out to be very tasty, rich, and when solidified, it almost always gelates. Fish soup with potatoes will be more satisfying.

  1. Cut the potatoes into small pieces and place in a saucepan.
  2. Pour cold water over potatoes. Place a saucepan over high heat and bring the water to a boil. Reduce heat and let the potatoes simmer.
  3. Scale the crucian carp. For this, I use an ordinary vegetable peeler – very convenient!
  4. We will cook fish soup ahead, so the gills must be removed. Also, remove the insides, cut off the fins. Rinse the fish well.
