So, I just read this article about a recipe for a super yummy and cheap fish dish by Arguiñano called “guiso de caballa con patatas”. It caught my attention because I’ve been trying to save some money on groceries lately, and fish can be so expensive sometimes!
Basically, the recipe involves simmering mackerel fillets with potatoes in a flavorful broth of onions, garlic, peppers, and tomatoes, and adding some white wine to make it extra tasty. It sounds pretty easy and quick to make, and the flavors seem like they would blend really nicely together.
What I found interesting was how Arguiñano talks about finding creative ways to use affordable ingredients, like mackerel, to make delicious and healthy meals. In my own experience, I’ve definitely noticed that it can be intimidating to cook fish sometimes because of how expensive it can be, especially if you’re not a super experienced cook. So it’s cool to see someone like Arguiñano encouraging people to experiment with different fish varieties and techniques.
Overall, I think this article is a great reminder that you don’t have to spend a ton of money to eat well and enjoy good food. Plus, it’s always fun to try new recipes and cooking styles!
