curry pickled herring

I have been having this crazy curry crave lately and decided to make pickled herring, though with curry flavor. Its a couple day process, but well worth it.

I started by getting 3 herring fillets (skin on). And letting them sit in water over night.

Drain water and slice, so you get the round circles, up a golden onion

In a pot mix

• 3/4 cup of white wine vinegar
  
• 3/4 cup of water
• 2 kaffir lime leaves
• 3 tsps of curry powder
• 2 tbs of sugar...or a little more
  

turn to med-high to reach a boil. stir.

Once it reaches a boil, take it off burner and let it cool.

Now in a ziplock container (not bag) layer the herring and onion.

Poor the cooled mixture into container and let it sit for 2 days.

Enjoy with some heavy rye bread.
