• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 15

Ingredients

• 2  tablespoons  fish roe (white coloured fish roe preferred)
• 6  slices  white bread
• 1  tablespoon lemon juice
• 1⁄4 cup green onion, finely chopped
• 1  onion, chopped in thin slices
• 1⁄2 cup olive oil (for frying)

Directions

1. Remove the bread crust from the bread slices. Soak the bread in a bowl of water. Strain it.
2. Mix well the fish roe, the onions and the bread until the mixture becomes thick.
3. Let the mixture stand for a while in order to thicken more.
