INGREDIENTS:
3 pounds fish 1 large or 2 small yellow onions, peeled 3 eggs
1/4 to 3/4 cup matzo meal 1 cup cold water 1 teaspoon sugar
salt and pepper to taste fish stock for Gefilte Fish



1 Put the fish and onion through a meat grinder, or have the fish-monger grind the fish for you. Place the mixture in a bowl, add the other ingredients, and mix thoroughly. Do not use all the matzo meal at once because you may not need much in order to make a firm and workable fish paste. Season generously with salt and pepper. Form into balls, and cook in the fish stock. Let come to a boil; then cook slowly for 1 hour with a lid on the kettle.
2 Serve the fish cold in some of the broth. Traditionally horseradish is served on the side.
