Preparing and marinating fish
Any red fish cooked in a slow cooker turns out to be tasty and satisfying. We decided to use salmon, as it is oily, and after heat treatment it becomes very juicy. It must be carefully processed (remove all the insides, scales, fins, tail, head, etc.), and then cut into portioned steaks up to three centimeters thick.
To make red
fish cooked in a slow cooker more aromatic and juicy, it is recommended to soak it in advance in
sour sauce. To do this, squeeze ¼ of a small lemon into a bowl, add spices, allspice and salt, and then carefully rub them with salmon steaks. Next, the fish should be covered with a lid and left aside for 30-40 minutes.
Heat treatment
Red fish in the Redmond slow cooker should be cooked in steam mode, so it will turn out to be especially tender and juicy. To do this, pieces of salmon must be laid out on the grill of the device, which should be lubricated with vegetable oil in advance. If this is not done, it is likely that the steaks will stick to the bottom, it will be very difficult to get them in a holistic form. Next, you need to pour a little chilled boiling water into the bowl of the device, install a filled grate and set the steam mode for about half an hour.
Sauce making
While the red fish in the slow cooker is thermally processed, you can do the cooking of a delicious and fragrant creamy sauce. To do this, whip cream and thick sour cream, pour melted butter into them, and add salt, shredded greens (parsley, dill, green onion arrows ) and pepper.
The final stage in the preparation
After the salmon becomes soft, put several slices of hard cheese on the steaks and wait for them to completely melt in the heating mode. After that, pieces of fish must be carefully removed and laid out on portioned plates. On top, juicy and aromatic salmon with a cheese cap should be abundantly poured with previously prepared creamy sauce.
How to serve to the table
Red fish cooked in a slow cooker must be served hot for dinner along with a side dish of vegetables or cereals.
