Megrelian-style mackerel
Description
The appetizer is quick and easy to make. Here is the recipe for Megrelian-style mackerel. And I’m happy to tell you how to prepare it. Delicious and easy to make, this fish turns out so tender, tasty, and juicy that it literally melts in your mouth! In the original Megrelian recipe, eggplant and zucchini were marinated in this marinade, but I took the risk of applying this recipe to fish—and I wasn’t wrong. I recommend it to you now too. Serve with herbs and sauce.
