Baked Mackerel Recipe. What is the best way to cook fresh-frozen mackerel? Mackerel baked with vegetables in a slow cooker

26.08.2019 Buffet table

Smoked or salted mackerel is a very frequent guest at our tables, while mackerel in the oven is not so popular, and in vain! The mackerel in the oven is a very tasty and incredibly aromatic dish, and the effective serving with vegetables and herbs allows this simple fish to become a real hit of a festive feast. In addition, baked mackerel is a low-calorie diet product that retains its beneficial properties and saturates the body with omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins B12 and D, as well as phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, fluorine, zinc and iodine. Among other things, mackerel meat contains “good” cholesterol, and the protein present in it is absorbed by the body three times faster than beef. Why not bake this wonderful fish in the oven?

To begin with, you should choose high-quality fish, and in order to do this correctly, pay attention to its appearance and smell. Fresh fish is moist and shiny, its gills are red and have no mucus, and the scales are tight to the carcass. The eyes of a good mackerel are convex, transparent and moist, the abdomen is flat. Mackerel should have a characteristic fishy smell, and its carcass should be elastic (when pressed with a finger, the dents will quickly disappear). The presence of damage and spots on the surface of the fish, cloudy and sunken eyes, dull and dry scales, sticky fins and an unpleasant smell should alert you.

Remember that fresh mackerel can be stored in the refrigerator for no more than a day, and if it is gutted, the shelf life is increased to 2-3 days. If you cook from frozen mackerel, do not forget to defrost it properly - this is done in the refrigerator, but not in warm water or at room temperature. Compliance with this simple nuance is the key to getting juicy and healthy fish in the oven at the exit.

In the oven, mackerel can be prepared in various ways - it can be baked whole in foil or in a sleeve, stuffed or baked in pieces, while these options can be varied by adding vegetables, for example, onions, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, bell peppers, green beans or broccoli. Stuffed mackerel is a special topic, since such an expertly decorated dish looks very festive and elegant, enthralling everyone at the table, and it is very simple to prepare. Mackerel filling options can be very diverse - vegetables, mushrooms, cereals, cheese or boiled eggs, as well as combinations of these ingredients.

When removing the insides from mackerel, be sure to remove the black film from the belly, as it can give the fish a bitter taste and ruin the dish. If you are confused by a specific fishy smell, it can be eliminated with the simplest marinade - lemon juice with spices. And finally, remember that mackerel - the fish is quite oily, so you should not add too much mayonnaise, vegetable oil or fatty sauce to it when cooking.

An amazingly tasty and healthy mackerel in the oven is already asking for your table! Well, let's go to the kitchen as soon as possible?

We choose large mackerel for stuffing. If it is frozen, defrost it on the shelf of the refrigerator, preferably left overnight.

Wash it with a paper towel. Near the fin, near the top near the head, we make a transverse incision with a sharp knife. Its depth should be no more than 1 centimeter. Unfortunately, I got one and a half.

Stepping back from the tail 2.5 centimeters, make another 1 of the same incision.

Make the third incision along the back, from one transverse incision, to the second, cutting the rib bones with a knife to the spine.

Insert the scissors into a cross section and cut the spine bone at the head and tail.

It looks like peeled fish. My cuts are too deep, make them less deep. It is enough to make a depth of 1 centimeter.

Rub carrots on a fine grater.

Grate the cheese on a fine grater.

Fry onions and carrots in vegetable oil over low heat for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add pepper to vegetables, continue to fry for another 2 minutes.

Add the mushrooms, sour cream, mix and pass for another 2 minutes. The fire is small during the frying of all vegetables. Salt, pepper, add marjoram, set aside to cool.

The filling is ready, and since we sautéed over low heat, the vegetables and mushrooms remained soft, slightly fried and not overcooked.

9. Grate the cheese on a coarse grater and sprinkle the filling on top.

Tasty will use two types of cheese. For example, Mozzarella and Gouda (or Dutch).

10. The oven should already be heated to 190º. Place a baking tray with a snack for 25-30 minutes. Navigate in your oven, but in principle, the mackerel is prepared quickly, it does not need to be overexposed.

11. As you can see, it turns out a beautiful dish that you just want to try. You can make almost any filling from what is in the refrigerator. Eggplant and even pumpkin will be tasty.

Ingredients for Stuffed Mackerel.

Peel and dice the onion. Wash mushrooms and cut into cubes as well.

Fry onion with mushrooms in vegetable oil until rosy. Add salt to taste.

Now we will cut the fish for stuffing. Cut mackerel along the ridge on both sides of the fin. Gently scissor to cut the ridge near the head and near the tail. Carefully remove the ridge from the fish, leaving the sides and belly of the fish intact. Remove entrails and black film. Removing the remaining bones, they are large and well palpated by the fingers. Remove from the head the gills. Wash the carcass of the fish under running water. The result is such a pocket fish.

Grate the fish with salt, put the stuffing from the mushrooms inside. If the fish is very open, you can fasten with skewers or tie a thread. Put stuffed mackerel on a baking sheet and bake at 180 degrees for 25 minutes.
