     WIGILIA-2 - Pike Polish style

     This recipe could be used as part of a 12 course meal known
     in Polish as Wigilia or on its own.  Wigilia is eaten after
     sundown on Christmas Eve.

INGREDIENTS (Serves 4-6)
          FISH
     2         carrots
     2         stalks celery
     1         onion, quartered
     10        peppercorns
     1         bay leaf
     2 tsp     salt
               water
     1         fish, dressed (perch, sole, pike or similar white
               fish)
          TOPPING
     1/4 cup   butter
     1 Tbsp    fresh dill or parsley, chopped
     3/4 tsp   salt
     1/4 tsp   pepper
     1/4 cup   lemon juice
     6         hard-cooked eggs, finely chopped

PROCEDURE
          (1)  Combine fish, vegetables, dry seasonings, and
               enough water to cover in a saucepan or pot.  Boil
               gently for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the
               fish flakes easily.

          (2)  Meanwhile, heat butter in a skillet.  Add the
               chopped eggs, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper.
               Cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

          (3)  When the fish is cooked, set it on a warm platter
               and then spoon the topping over the fish.  Serve
               with rice or potatoes.

RATING
     Difficulty: easy.  Time: 30 minutes.  Precision: Approximate
     measurement OK.
