Stuffed pike

picture - Stuffed pike
My dad loves fishing. Basically, his catch - it perches, but the other day Dad brought a pike.
And I've been going to cook stuffed pike. It appears this is simple.
Taste exceeded our expectations. Pike turns out very tender, soft, juicy.
I added cooked rice stuffing, but you can not do.
If there's an extra stuffing, you can fry patties out of it.
If you use frozen fish before cooking it should be good to unfreeze.
