Instructions
Step 1
Prepare your vegetables. Peel the onion and chop finely. Grind the garlic with salt. Peel and grate the carrots. Cut the tomatoes into slices. Pour the oil into a saucepan and add the onions, carrots and garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, then add some fish stock and simmer until the onions are soft. Add tomato puree, salt, pepper and bay leaf and cook everything together for another 5 minutes. You can add mild vinegar to the vegetable mix instead of the broth to justify the name “marinade”.
Step 2
Prepare your pike. Clean it, free from entrails, fins, head and tail. Rinse the fish and cut into portions. Rub with salt and let sit for 15 minutes. During this time, the fish will excrete excess liquid. Drain it, and then there are two options. Some housewives pre-fry the pike. Dip fish pieces in flour or breadcrumbs and brown in hot oil until crisp. But pike turns out to be no less tasty if you do without frying. In this case, put the pieces on a roasting pan or baking sheet, pour over the resulting sauce. Place a circle of tomato on each slice. Some housewives cover the vegetable mixture with mayonnaise.
Step 3
Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Bake the pike in it for 20 minutes. You can also cook in a microwave or other kitchen appliance, for example, in an airfryer. If you have a thick vegetable sauce and you let the fish and salt settle before cooking, then there will be no excess liquid in the baked dish. Otherwise, serve the pike in deep bowls or bowls. Sprinkle each serving in a plate with finely chopped herbs.
Step 4
There is a recipe for pickling pike without hot processing. Free the fish pieces from the skin and cut them into small enough pieces, 2 cm thick. Prepare the marinade. Boil water with spices in a saucepan, boil them for 5 minutes. Refrigerate and add vinegar essence. Immerse the pike pieces in the created marinade and leave for 2 hours at room temperature. Then put it in the refrigerator for 10 hours. After that, drain the marinade, sprinkle the pike with onion rings and cover with vegetable oil. Let her brew more. After 2 hours, the pike is ready.
