INSTRUCTIONS

* Note: Injera is a sour crepelike flat bread. In Ethiopia, injera is
served with many dishes and is even used in lieu of plates and utensils.
Place fillets in a nonreactive bowl, and fill with water. Cover, and
refrigerate overnight. In a medium saucepan, make a pickling brine by
combining vinegar, sugar, 3 cups water, all peppercorns, bay leaf, carrots,
red onion and leek; bring to a boil. Remove from heat; let the brine cool.
Remove herring from water; place in a shallow dish. Pour brine over
herring. Lay plastic wrap directly on the surface of the brine; let herring
marinate, refrigerated, overnight. Fill a small saucepan with water; bring
to a boil. Add beet; cook until fork tender, about 25 minutes. Drain, let
cool, and rub off the skin. Cut into 3/4-inch dice. Heat the canola oil in
a large skillet over medium heat. Add apple, yellow onion, and diced beet;
cook until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Stir in
applesauce, mayonnaise, sour cream, parsley, and dill. Season with salt and
pepper. Remove herring fillets from brine, and cut each fillet lengthwise
into four slices. Place a piece of flatbread on a work surface; spoon
one-quarter of beet mixture over bread. Top with 4 slices herring and 1/4
cup sprouts. Roll bread tightly around filling. Repeat, making three more
sandwiches. Slice each sandwich into 2-inch pieces; serve. Serves 4.
