    How to make mackerel with onions and carrots in a frying pan? Prepare the necessary ingredients for this. It is best to choose mackerel not frozen, but chilled. If it is frozen, remove it from the freezer in advance and leave it at room temperature so that it defrosts on its own.

    STEP 2

    Cut off the head and tail of the mackerel. Remove the insides and black films. Rinse the fish well inside and out. Blot with paper towels to remove excess water. Cut the mackerel into pieces 3-4 cm thick.

An easy to prepare and very delicate tasting recipe. I just love vegetables stewed with fish! I scoop them out of the pan first) The dish looks great on the table and requires a minimum of attention when cooking. When you don’t have time to spend a lot of time cooking, you can make this simple but tasty fish dish. Anything will do, even very tender ones, but mackerel is the best. There are many similar recipes, but this one is good because of its ease of preparation. Thank you
