On the one hand, you have herring fillets marinated in oil; on the other hand, you have a sauce based on sweet and sour elements. Sweet and sour sauce is a combination of sweet and sour flavours. It is commonly used in Asian cuisine and works well there as an ingredient in dishes or as an addition. It is quite simple to prepare and can be easily made by almost anyone in home conditions. So if you are bored with serving this sauce as an addition to chicken dishes, then the following recipe will be to your taste, assuming that you like marinated fish.
Preparing herring in sweet and sour sauce is very easy. After removing the fish from the oil, wipe off the excess oil and cut them into pieces, then combine the herring with the cut onion and sauce. I recommend using homemade sauce as a marinade, because homemade sweet and sour sauce is not only quick but also easy to make. Of course, after cooking the sauce and before combining it with the herring, such a homemade sauce should be cooled. You can also make it a few days in advance, keep it in the fridge and use it when making the dish. This dish is a great snack to serve to your guests at every party.
