Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Since Spanish mackerel is thick-fleshed, season well with salt to ensure even seasoning throughout, not just on the surface.
  • For deeper flavor, place the onion mayonnaise sauce on the fish, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for a day, then roast.
  • Using store-bought mayonnaise instead of homemade saves time and simplifies the process.
  • The distinctive herb dill and tangy sun-dried tomatoes are key to balancing the fish's richness and cutting any fishy smell.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy in-season Spanish mackerel in a new way beyond the usual grilled or braised preparations.
  • Those looking for a visually appealing, sophisticated home party snack that pairs well with wine or beer.
  • Those wanting a tender, creamy fish dish that even children will enjoy without hesitation.
