Anchovy with potato is a simple dish pairing anchovies with sliced potatoes, often baked together in a pan or oven. Recipes vary: some add onion and herbs, while others coat the fish lightly in cornmeal.
To make anchovy with potato, clean and drain the fish, then layer it with thinly sliced potatoes in an oiled baking dish. Add onion or herbs if you like, and cook until the potatoes are tender and the fish is cooked through.
Anchovy is strongly associated with Black Sea cooking, but anchovy with potato does not have one universally fixed regional recipe. It is a practical home-style combination, and ingredients and cooking methods differ between households.
Usually, you do not need to pre-cook the potatoes for anchovy with potato. Slice them thinly so they cook alongside the fish; thicker pieces may need a head start because anchovies cook relatively quickly.
Deboning anchovies is optional for anchovy with potato, though it makes the dish easier to eat. Remove the head and innards, then ease out the backbone; check carefully for remaining bones, especially before serving children.
Yes, canned anchovies can work in anchovy with potato, but they are saltier and more concentrated than fresh fish. Use less added salt, and consider stirring them into the potatoes rather than baking them for the full cooking time.
Black pepper, parsley, and a little chili pair well with anchovy with potato. Add lemon at the table for a fresher taste, and season cautiously because anchovies can already be salty.
A crisp green salad, lemon, or a yogurt-based side works well with anchovy with potato. Bread can also round out the meal, but the dish is already substantial when it includes a generous layer of potatoes.
Store leftover anchovy with potato in a covered container in the refrigerator once it has cooled. Reheat it until hot throughout before eating, and avoid leaving cooked fish at room temperature for an extended period.
Yes, you can freeze anchovy with potato, although the potatoes may turn soft or grainy after thawing. Freeze it in an airtight container, thaw it in the refrigerator, and reheat it in an oven or pan.

Anchovy with potato is a homestyle Turkish dish, especially associated with the Black Sea region, where anchovies are a familiar part of the cooking.

It may be cooked on the hob or baked, and is usually served hot as a main dish.
In Turkey, it often makes a hearty meal with salad or yoghurt on the side. For a lighter plate, use oil sparingly and add fresh greens or a squeeze of lemon. Anchovy with potato provides protein, while the potatoes contribute potassium.
