Mackerel with vegetables in sour cream sauce is a refined dish of European cuisine that combines the rich flavor of sea fish with delicate vegetable notes. Mackerel, with its bright aroma and health benefits, harmoniously complements sweet peppers, onions, and tomatoes to create a rich palette of flavors. The dish's highlight is the sour cream sauce with mustard that adds a creamy texture and a hint of spiciness. It is quick and easy to prepare: the fish is marinated in lemon juice, baked with vegetables, and topped with an airy sauce. Perfect for both family dinners and festive tables, filling the home with warmth and coziness. This dish tastes best hot when all ingredients blend into a single harmony and the sour cream sauce forms an appetizing golden crust.
