Prepare the soup, if possible, from fresh fish for better flavour. It is very important to use several kinds of fish, because the taste of different fish gives the real flavour to the soup. Clean and fillet the fish and cut into pieces, about 50g/2 oz. each, then salt. Place the heats, backbones and fins separately into a saucepan and boil with the onions cut into rings. Sprinkle it with hot red paprika when boiling and cook steadily for 40 minutes, then strain the liquid and pour over the slated fish. Add the roe, green pepper, cut into slices and sliced tomatoes, and boil together for 20 more minutes. Do not stir soup while cooking; just shake the saucepan from time to time. When serving, sprinkle with green pepper cut into rings. (Fisherman’s soup may be prepared quite well from carp alone)
