Take an old small saucepan. Line the bottom with foil so that it forms sides. Add rice (plain ordinary rice), then sugar, and tea on top (without flavorings).

Step 2
Cover everything with foil and fold up the edges from the first layer so the ingredients are well sealed inside the foil. Pierce holes with a toothpick or skewer.

Step 3
Place the capelin on top of the foil. Before putting the fish on the foil, season it with salt, pepper, spices, and a little sugar to taste. Cover with a lid (tightly) and wrap with a damp towel (a homemade airtight seal). Then put it on the stove over high heat; after a minute, reduce the heat to medium. Smoke the capelin over medium heat for about 20 minutes. A strong fish smell will spread through the apartment, so don’t forget to turn on the exhaust fan.
