Mackerel with egg and carrots with gelatin stuffed

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 6 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make stuffed mackerel with egg? Prepare your food. Thaw the fish first by transferring it from the freezer to the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. Then cut into 2 fillets, select the bones.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash and boil the carrots. How to boil carrots? Fill it with cold water and cook over medium heat. After boiling, reduce the heat and cook the carrots for 20-30 minutes, depending on the size and variety. Determine readiness with a sharp knife - it should easily pierce the root vegetable. Drain the water and cool the carrots completely. Then peel it and grate it on a coarse grater.

3. STEP 3

   

   Slice the cucumbers diagonally.

4. STEP 4

   

   Boil the eggs. How to hard boil eggs? To prevent eggs from cracking during cooking, place them in cold water and cook over low heat. Boil the eggs for 9 minutes after boiling, then cover with cold water and cool. The shell will be better cleaned from a sharp temperature change. Peel completely cooled eggs and cut into slices.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place cling film on the table, place one fillet on it, salt and season.

6. STEP 6

   

   Sprinkle the fillets with half of the dry gelatin.

7. STEP 7

   

   Place grated carrots on top.

8. STEP 8

   

   Place eggs on carrots.

9. STEP 9

   

   For eggs - cucumbers. Press down each layer slightly.

10. STEP 10

    

    Salt and season the second fillet. Also sprinkle it with the other half of gelatin. Place the second fillet on top of the first, as if reassembling the fish into the carcass.

11. STEP 11

    

    Wrap the fish very tightly in film in several layers and tie it crosswise with culinary thread.

12. STEP 12

    

    Salt the water in a saucepan of a suitable size (the whole carcass should fit in it) and bring it to a boil. Make several punctures in the film with a toothpick, place the fish in water and cook for half an hour.

13. STEP 13

    

    Then remove the fish from the water and place, without unfolding, directly in the film, under a press until it cools completely. I place a board on the fish, on which I place a jar of water. Place this entire structure in the refrigerator, preferably overnight.

14. STEP 14

    

    Free the finished fish from the thread and film and cut into slices. Serve to the table. Bon appetit!
