Ingredients
- Mackerel — 1 pcs
- Zucchini — 100 g
- Potato — 150 g
- Lemon juice — 30 ml
- Dry oregano — 1 g
- Herbes de Provence
- Salt
- Mozzarella cheese — 100 g
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).
- Peel the mackerel and carefully divide each fish into two parts. Remove any bones from the fish.
- Mix your preferred spices in a bowl and use the mixture to marinate the mackerel pieces. Make sure to coat both sides of the fish with the spices.
- Grate the cheese and set it aside.
- Cut the zucchinis into thin slices and place them in a separate bowl. Pour the lemon juice over the zucchini slices to marinate them.
- Boil the potatoes until they are tender. Once cooked, chop the potatoes until they become smooth and mashed.
- Take one part of the mackerel and place some grated cheese on it. Roll up the fish to secure the cheese inside and hold it in place using a toothpick. Repeat this process for the second piece of mackerel.
- Place the cheese-filled mackerel on a baking tray and bake them in the preheated oven for about 15 - 20 minutes or until the fish becomes tender and cooked through.
- Once the mackerel is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it cool down slightly.
- While the fish is cooling, take the thin slices of raw zucchini and use them to wrap the mashed potatoes, forming rectangular shapes to create a "potato pillow."
- Place the baked mackerel on top of the potato pillows.
- Serve your Cheesy Baked Mackerel with Zucchini and Potato Pillow, and enjoy your delicious meal!
- Note: Feel free to adjust the spices and seasoning to your taste preferences. You can also add some fresh herbs or a drizzle of olive oil for added flavor. Bon appétit!
