Smelt in sour cream
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Cooking smelt in sour cream is like winning a small but pleasant lottery prize. Allow me this comparison :) Quick, tasty, and inexpensive. And most importantly, not a trace of excess fat. It's not a delicacy, of course, but perfect for an ordinary weekday meal. According to this recipe, the fish turns out very tender and delicate. Cooking under a lid, the smelt releases its own juice, which combines with the sour cream to create an amazing sauce. Well, why am I praising it so much—just read on. The finished dish is ready to be served.
