Yield Six main-course portions or 12 first-course portions

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup olive oil
2 pounds potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4-inch thick, about 5 cups
2 1/2 pounds mackerel, filleted, with heads and bones cut into 2-inch pieces
3 1/2 cups dry white wine
20 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
1 1/4 pounds kale, stemmed, washed and cut into 1-inch slices
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Stir together oil and potatoes in a 5-quart glass or ceramic casserole. Cover securely with microwave plastic wrap or a tightly fitting lid. Cook at 100 percent power for 4 minutes in a 650- to 700-watt oven. If using plastic, prick to release steam.
  • Remove from oven. Place fish bones and heads on a double thickness of cheesecloth and tie securely with string. Add to casserole along with 2 1/2 cups of the wine and garlic. Cover and cook for 22 minutes, stirring twice.
  • While potato mixture is cooking, halve fillets lengthwise and remove pin bones; try a tweezers. Cut across into 2-inch chunks.
  • If using plastic, prick to release steam. Remove casserole from oven and uncover. Discard fish heads and bones in cheesecloth. Place fish over potatoes and top with kale. Re-cover and cook for 17 minutes. If using plastic, prick to release steam.
  • Remove from oven and uncover. Stir in remaining 1-cup wine, salt and pepper to taste, breaking up the fish as you stir. Re-cover and cook for 3 minutes more or until hot.
