A Turkish-style mackerel sandwich made by coating canned mackerel in flour and frying it until crispy, then filling a baguette with a super simple sauce and fresh vegetables.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Canned mackerel has soft bones, so it can be cooked whole without needing to remove the bones, making it very convenient.
  • To completely eliminate the fishy smell, thoroughly drain the mackerel liquid and carefully coat it with flour before frying it like a jeon; this is key.
  • Instead of pickles for authentic tartar sauce, dicing and adding danmuji can easily substitute for a crunchy texture and sweet and sour flavor.
  • If you don't have baguette bread, you can serve the fried mackerel with sauce and vegetables like a fish cutlet, making it an excellent beer snack.
