Mackerel is a sea fish, it is not only very useful, but also affordable. Mackerel is rich in important elements and omega-fats. Cooking it is simple and not troublesome. Salted mackerel is very tasty, it can also be baked and fried. As companion vegetables, you can take absolutely any specimens, beans, zucchini, potatoes, and just carrots with onions will do. It is not necessary to lay the fish in layers, as in my recipe, you can just put the fish on a vegetable substrate. If you cook with potatoes, then splash a little water so that the potatoes are better cooked. It is also not necessary to cut the fish. Leave the whole carcass, making incisions on it. Or stuff her belly with vegetables. You can simply wrap the fish and vegetables in foil and bake in it. Fish loves lemon, so do not neglect it when cooking. You can serve baked mackerel both hot and cold.
