Kırmızı güller

Rødbetgravet laks is a traditional fish dish originating from Norway. The dish is usually made with a combination of salmon fillets, beetroot, sugar, salt, lemon peel, orange peel, dill, and aquavit. The grated beetroot is mixed with sugar, salt, lemon and orange peel, chopped dill, and a splash of aquavit, if desired. The mixture is spread over the salmon fillets, which are then wrapped and left to marinate in the fridge. After 48 hours, the marinade mixture is scraped off the salmon and it is then cut into thin slices. The slices of marinated salmon are usually served with a flatbread and horseradish cream (horseradish, sour cream, salt, pepper) on the side. The dish is especially popular during the festive Christmas season.
