THE SJÖBODEN MACKEREL PAN
Sjöbodens makrillpanna

Mackerel is a very popular fish in Sweden. For this pan you can either use whole, fresh mackerel or frozen mackerel fillets.

4 servings

2 lbs whole mackerel or 1 1/3 lbs mackerel fillets
salt
2/3 cup water
¼ fish bouillon cube
7 oz cherry tomatoes
2 tablespoons chopped dill
1/3 cup cream, 15% fat
salt, pepper


Rinse and de-bone whole mackerel and remove head, fins and tail. Cut the fish or the fillets in 1 ¼ inch slices and sprinkle with some salt. Bring water and bouillon cube to a boil in a sauté pan or a shallow saucepan, put in the fish and let simmer, covered, for 10 to 15 minutes.

Make a little cut in the tomatoes. Blend in dill and cream and put the tomatoes in the pan. Simmer for 3 to 5 minutes. Flavour to taste and adjust if necessary.

Serve with boiled dill potatoes, green peas and crispbread.

Enjoy!
