  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make hake medallions? Prepare the necessary ingredients. Hake medallions are usually sold frozen. They are pieces of fish fillet without skin and bones, pressed into dense pucks, which, even after defrosting, do not fall apart into separate pieces if handled with care. You will learn how to defrost correctly by reading a separate article. There is a link to it at the end of this recipe.

For lunch I fried hake medallions in a frying pan. True, I didn’t have medallions, but a fish carcass. I cut it into slices about 1.5 cm thick, salted them, added spices, lemon juice and left to marinate for about half an hour. I fried hake slices in a mayonnaise-based batter. The fish turned out wonderful, rosy, juicy, very tasty! Thanks for the recipe, Maria!
