Note

Balyk ekmek is a wonderful dish of Turkish cuisine and, if the name is translated, it will sound just like "fish and bread". Balyk ekmek is a very simple to prepare, but very tasty and satisfying dish that looks like a regular fish sandwich. Traditionally, balyk ekmek is prepared with a regular loaf, but in order to make the dish less nutritious and more presentable in appearance, I suggest using thin lavash. Due to the fact that the filling is wrapped in pita bread, it is very easy to take such balyk ekmek with you to a picnic or as lunch to work.
The recipe was spied on the cook website - I changed it quite a bit. Recommend!

Angela, wonderful fish recipe! What do you think, can you make a lean fish like that? Like cod. Otherwise, I'm not very fried mackerel ...
ang-kay

Angela, I don't know, this is a photo from the Internet. But I can't even imagine how it was possible to pack whole fish in dough, how to eat it after that ??? But since it is in the showcase with other pies, it is obvious that there is demand.
ang-kay
The obvious is incredible. But I laughed)
filirina
Angela, very cute recipe! And the fish, in the photo in the pie, is most likely gutted and filleted, just for beauty (and weight, of course) the head and tail are left. Well, I would do just that.
ang-kay
Irina, Thank you. I never thought that there was fish in the dough with full entrails. It's just that the product itself looks funny in my opinion)

Angela, what a fish shawarma! I just sooooo wanted her, and right now! I myself don't often eat fish, but I have a friend who is a vegetarian. Thank you for the recipe! I just bought a fish yesterday
ang-kay
Olechka.s, Thank you. It turns out very tasty. Please your friend and try it yourself)

Olga, vegetarians don't eat fish, your girlfriend is probably a pescetarian ...

Pescetarianism (derived from pescetarian, a neologism formed by the fusion of two Italian words. Pesce - fish and English vegetarian - vegetable eating) is a way of life that consists in refusing to eat warm-blooded meat. Eating fish and shellfish is allowed. Plant foods, eggs and milk can be consumed without restriction or with the exception of certain categories of products.

Peace be with you bakers!

You did it beautifully

And this is how this sandwich, bought in a cult place near the Galata bridge in Istanbul, looks like in real life.

You can bake the fish until cooked in the oven

Angela, can you tell me, 25-30 minutes will be enough for baking?

You don't need to peel the fish, right I get it?
ang-kay
Inna, did not understand about cleaning? You need to mill the fish. Bake for 30 minutes is enough at 200 degrees.

Angela, I meant to remove the skin from the fish or not?

However), it doesn't matter anymore, well, maybe for the future, I've already baked ...

Inna, in the same photo, mackerel fillets are everywhere with skin, you can clearly see it.

Svetulya, and suddenly an optical illusion, I thought) and decided to clarify just in case ...

I just peel mackerel almost always, with rare exceptions)) ...

Innochka, you already understood that no. I only peel the skin if the fish is smoked or salted.

Yes, I understood right away, but clarify), this is my everything !!!

Angela, and not to attach tomatoes from the freezer here?

Can try them I have whole "cream" chop and simmer until the liquid evaporates ...

I forgot to buy tomatoes ...
ang-kay
Inna, I do not ice tomatoes. I don't know how they behave. Put the sun-dried and grease the lavash.

Then it's just ketchup, so as not to bother.
