Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Clean the fish for the broth by removing the gills, entrails, and eyes. Simmer for 3 hours over low heat. Then, remove the fish and strain the broth.
Step 2
Meanwhile, chop the vegetables: cut the potatoes into large chunks, slice the onion into strips, and slice the carrot. Peel the tomatoes.
Step 3
Place the strained broth over heat; once it comes to a boil, add all the vegetables (except the tomato) and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 4
Five minutes before it's done, add the tomatoes, and then pour in the vodka.
Step 5
Before serving, add fillets of chilled pike-perch, cut into small slices, to the soup and cook until the fish is done, about 5 minutes.
