  • 600 g cooked potatoes
  • 2 carrots
  • 2 shallots
  • 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper (freshly ground)
  • 2 tbsp freshly chopped parsley
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp peppercorns
  • 1 tsp juniper berries
  • parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Wash the wels fillet, pat dry and slice into strips. Peel, wash, and thinly slice the potatoes and carrots. Trim the shallots and cut them into strips.

  2. 2.

    Heat oil in a non‑stick skillet over medium heat and fry the potato and carrot slices for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally until golden brown. Season with salt, pepper, and add parsley.
