Ingredients
- 45gr roe – mass of fish eggs (In Greece we use the ones from cod normally, but you can find also from grey mullet, herring or carp)
- 1 small onion
- 120gr toast bread (but you need to remove the exterior hard part)
- 40ml lemon juice
- 180ml sunflower oil
Steps
- Break the toast bread in small pieces
- Add the lemon juice and mix well
- Add the roe in a deep bowl (if you will use a hand mixer) or place them in a standmixer
- Add the onion and the toast bread and mix well
- Add the sunflower oil and mix well

The white roe is normally from cod and of higher quality. The red/pink one has added color but people seem to prefer it. If you like the pink color, put a red onion and not a white.
There is a lot of Na in the roe, so for some diets is not ideal.
