Step by Step guide

Step 1

Prepare the marinade. Chop the celery stalk, carrot (into medium pieces), and one onion (in half), place them in a pot, add the peppercorns, allspice, bay leaf, cloves, pour in water, bring to a boil, and simmer for about 20 minutes. Add salt, sugar, vinegar, remove from heat, and let it cool completely.

Step 2

Marinate the mackerel - place the fish in a deep dish (preferably in a single layer), slice the remaining onion into rings, cover the fish with it, and pour the marinade over, then refrigerate for 6–8 hours.

Step 3

Remove the mackerel from the marinade, pat dry with paper towels, make diagonal cuts, place on a baking sheet skin side up, sprinkle with salt, drizzle with olive oil, and place in the oven (grill) for 10–15 minutes until golden brown.
