Mackerel baked with potatoes - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute mackerel with other oily fish like salmon or sardines, or even milder white fish like cod or haddock. Adjust cooking time slightly for thicker fillets.
Replace the mackerel with hearty veggies like zucchini, eggplant, or mushrooms. Add more cheese or a sprinkle of nutritional yeast for a umami flavor boost.
You can chop the veggies and season them in advance, but assemble and bake just before serving for the best texture. Prepped veggies keep refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
Store cooled leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in the oven to maintain crispness.
Freezing isn't recommended as the potatoes may become grainy and the fish texture can suffer. Best enjoyed fresh or refrigerated for short-term storage.
Pair with a fresh green salad, crusty bread, or steamed greens like asparagus or green beans for a balanced meal.
Reduce the potato quantity by half or substitute with cauliflower florets. You can also increase the proportion of carrots and other low-carb veggies.
Yes, use about 1/3 the amount of dried rosemary (since it's more concentrated). Sprinkle it directly on the vegetables before adding the fish.
Any melty cheese like cheddar, gruyère, or parmesan works well. For a lighter option, try feta or goat cheese crumbles.
