But any sea fish of red varieties, dietary fish species such as cod, tuna or mackerel, catfish, sardines and even silver carp are suitable for the recipe. The main thing is that it is fresh, pleasant to look at and without any foreign smell.
The amount of the rest of the products can be varied to achieve the perfect taste. I am dominated by young cabbage, you can also focus on cucumbers.
