Mackerel with potatoes in the oven
Description
Mackerel with potatoes in the oven is an excellent dish—delicious, hearty, simple, and healthy. It's completely lean and diet-friendly. The dish is quick to prepare, and if you buy gutted and cleaned fish, the preparation will take only about 20 minutes, not counting baking time in the oven. In this dish, it's hard to tell what tastes better: the fish or the vegetables, which absorb the broth and the flavor of the mackerel.
