Marinated Smoked Herring in Olive Oil

Boiled potato with marinated smoked herring is a dish that combines tender boiled potatoes with flavorful smoked herring that has been marinated in various spices and seasonings. It's a popular dish in some regions, known for its savory and slightly salty taste.

A kipper is a whole herring, a small, oily fish that has been split in a butterfly fashion from tail to head along the dorsal ridge, gutted, salted or pickled, and cold-smoked over smouldering wood chip.
