Method

  1. 1 Slice the fish fillets into thin slices 5 mm thick, then marinate with salt, pepper, and chopped dill for 20 minutes.
  2. 2 Pat the fish slices dry, then place them on a slice of ham and roll it up from the narrow end.
  3. 3 The ham is on the outside and the fish is on the inside; the ham wraps tightly, preventing the fish juices from leaking out and the oil from seeping in.
  4. 4 Use toothpicks to secure the ends, then refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the roll to firm up.
  5. 5 Roll in flour, dip in egg, then coat with breadcrumbs.
  6. 6 Deep-fry at 175 degrees for 3 minutes, then remove with a toothpick and dip in mayonnaise mixed with lemon juice.
