Steamed fish in a slow cooker

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 30 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to steam fish in a slow cooker? Prepare your food. I have Congrio fish, shrimp fish. You can take any boneless fish or fillet of any fish. If you have frozen fish, defrost it first.

2. STEP 2

   

   To prepare this dish we will need a slow cooker (or double boiler). Pour about 200 ml of water (bottled or filtered) into the multicooker bowl.

3. STEP 3

   

   Add a bay leaf - it will give the fish a pleasant aroma. If you are not a fan of laurel or, conversely, a lover of other herbs and seasonings, then now is the time to add them to the water. It could be allspice, thyme, rosemary, and even onions or garlic. In my opinion, dried dill and allspice are ideal for fish - choose seasonings to suit your taste.

4. STEP 4

   

   Place a steaming rack on the multicooker cup.

5. STEP 5

   

   Rinse the fish well, check again that there are no bones, cut off the fins if there are any. My fish is boneless, only with a clearly defined ridge, which is easily removed while eating. Cut the fish into medium-sized pieces.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place the fish pieces on the steaming rack. As opposed to meat, I recommend salting fish before cooking - in this case, it will not turn out watery, but will be tender and juicy. Therefore, salt the fish a little.

7. STEP 7

   

   Place the bowl in the multicooker, cook in the “Steam” mode until done. In standard multicookers, steaming time is about 10 minutes. And although the fish cooks quite quickly, I advise you to increase it to 15 minutes. This fish is delicious hot or cold. In addition, it is also very healthy and completely non-greasy. Bon appetit!

A tasty dietary dish. I often cook fish cutlets steamed in a slow cooker; they turn out more tender.

For a light dinner, I decided to steam fish in a slow cooker. I had a carp. I cleaned the fish, washed it, and cut it into fillets (I put the head on the ear). I salted the pieces of fish, peppered them with black pepper and put them in a bowl for steaming. For taste and aroma, I put a little chopped onion on the fish pieces (we love onions). Between the pieces of fish I placed thin slices of raw potatoes. I cooked the fish in the “steaming” mode for about 15 minutes (based on the readiness of the potatoes). Dinner turned out great!
