โ ๐Do you want to cook juicy fish for dinner today?
Today I want to invite you to cook a tender fish that melts in your mouth without frying, boiling or baking in the oven.
She also prepares at record speed! Just imagine - only 12-15 minutes of cooking, and juicy mackerel can be served. Mashed potatoes or just boiled potatoes are perfect for garnish. A great option when there is no time for a long "dance" at the stove.
Ingredients for making mackerel:
Fresh frozen mackerel - 1-2 carcasses (weighing about 500 g)
Onions - 2 pcs.
Vegetable oil - 2 tbsp. l.
Ground black pepper - to taste
Sweet ground paprika - 0.5 tsp l. (taste)
Salt - 0.5 tsp l. (taste)
Lemon juice - 1 tsp l. (optional)
Getting started cooking... โคต๏ธโคต๏ธโคต๏ธ
We take freshly frozen mackerel, if necessary, defrost it in the microwave on the "Defrost" mode for 5-7 minutes. If the fish remains slightly frozen, it's okay, the main thing is that it can be easily gutted and cut. You can defrost in the usual way - at room temperature, but if you have a microwave oven at hand, defrosting will take much less time. After thawing, gut the fish and cut it into pieces.
Place the chopped mackerel in a bowl, add salt, pepper, paprika, vegetable oil and lemon juice.
Mix well with your hands so that each piece of fish is covered with a fragrant mixture.
Next, peel and cut the onions into small cubes, wrinkle them slightly with your hands so that it becomes softer and the juice begins to stand out.
Now we take any suitable form that is suitable for cooking in a microwave oven (glass, ceramic, made of food-grade plastic, without metal elements) we put in it half of the total amount Luke. Lay out the pieces of fish on top.
Put the remaining onion on top of the fish and put it in the microwave. We turn on the "microwave" mode, set the power to 800 W and set the time to 6 minutes.
After the signal from the microwave oven, take out the form and gently mix its contents. Then we put the fish back in the microwave and repeat the cooking cycle (6 minutes at 800 W).
We take out the fish - now it is completely ready to serve.
That's not all, read to the end โโโ ๐๐๐
Mackerel prepared in this way is juicy, appetizing and aromatic. It can be served as a main course or used to fill fish pies. You can experiment endlessly with spices. Amazingly delicious! Cook, taste, Bon appetit!
