This is a dish that no Russian party goes without. They are served for festive dinners and leftovers are greatly enjoyed the next morning.

 

Ingredients:

  • Dark bread (can be white or any other kind of bread)
  • Smoked sprats
  • Pickles
  • Cucumbers

Toast the pre-sliced bread. Set aside to cool off. If using garlic, mix the minced garlic with the mayonnaise. Spread a layer of the mayonnaise on the cooled off toasts. Place 2-3 smoked sprats on top and add a slice of cucumber and a slice of pickle. You can use one or the other, or both.
