Boiled fish

Description

The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. The fish is very tender and delicate; I recommend serving it with an equally healthy and mild side dish, such as boiled rice, mashed potatoes, or pea purée. Cooked tilapia can also be used in salads. You can store the cooked fish in the refrigerator for several days. The dish is ready to be served.
