Wash the fish carefully with cold water, keep the skin.
Get a dish that can contain both fish pieces on top of each other and has a lid. Place the pieces of the fish at the bottom of the dish and pour the vodka on them.
Cut the lemon into two parts. Use one half to squeeze the juice. Cut the other half in thin slices.
Sprinkle the sea salt and the ground pepper on the fish.
Crush the garlic with a garlic crusher and spread it on both fish pieces.
Place the fresh herbs on one of the fish pieces.
Take one fish piece and place it flesh to flesh onto the other piece. Press them together.
Put the lid on. If the lid is transparent, cover the lid with a cloth so no light can come in contact with the fish.
Let it sit in the fridge for a full 24 hours.
After 24 hours, remove the fish from the dish and slice it in thin slices. Put into a storage container and keep it in the fridge until you're ready to serve it.

Cut the red onion into very small pieces.
In a serving bowl, pour the yogurt or sour cream.
