What causes the difference

The portion size is the same, but the ingredients and preparation differ.

Sauce: Lemon juice → Sunflower oil
  • The plate is identical — herring, boiled potatoes, onion rings, dill. The only decision is what you pour over it.
  • Two tablespoons of sunflower oil are ~30 g of mostly fat — more calories than the potatoes underneath (the oil-drizzled reference example sits at 144 kcal/100 g vs ~92 for the lean version).
  • Lemon juice cuts the salt with the same sharpness for essentially zero calories.
