reserving both separately. Line bottom of pan with sliced onions and
carrot. Then place bones and skin.

Meanwhile, combine fish with grated carrot and onion. Put through grinder
twice. If desired, put plain grated carrot through grinder at end to clean
grinder. Add 1/2 tsp pepper and 1 1/2 TB salt. Beat eggs well and mix with
