Saithe in the oven
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. I really enjoy cooking this fish not only for lunch but also for festive occasions. It turns out very tasty and aromatic, with vegetables serving as a side dish. The saithe is baked in the oven for about 40 minutes on a bed of vegetables. If you marinate the fish in lemon juice beforehand, it will taste even better. The ready dish can now be served.

Step 1
1. Pollock baked in the oven on a bed of vegetables is very quick to prepare. I have a special fish cooker — an excellent dish that allows you to cook fish either in the oven or by steaming. So, the pollock needs to be gutted and thoroughly washed.

2. Place the bay leaf at the very bottom, then put in the rack. If you don't have a fish poacher, use a regular baking dish, but in that case, make the bed out of vegetables.
