Kepintų Žuvų Sriuba - Roasted Fish Soup

Ingredients

• 2 cups roasted fish
• 2 medium potatoes
• 2 medium carrots
• 1 large onions
• 1 tablespoon dill
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. 2

   Prepare the roasted fish by placing it on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until fully cooked and flaky.

3. 3

   While the fish is roasting, peel and dice the potatoes and carrots into small cubes. Chop the onion and mince the garlic.

4. 4

   In a large pot, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing for about 5 minutes until the onion is translucent.

5. 5

   Add the diced potatoes and carrots to the pot, stirring well. Cook for an additional 5 minutes.

6. 6

   Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are tender.

7. 7

   Once the fish is roasted, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly. Flake the fish into bite-sized pieces, discarding any bones.

8. 8

   Add the flaked fish to the soup along with the chopped dill and lemon juice. Stir gently to combine and let it simmer for another 5 minutes.

9. 9

   Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot, garnished with extra dill if desired.
