No. Mezgit is European whiting (Merlangius merlangus), not haddock. This dish is made by baking mezgit fillets without added oil, so recipes or cooking advice for haddock may not match its exact size or texture.
Bake the fillets on parchment and start checking them early, since thin mezgit cooks quickly. A little lemon juice or a splash of water in the baking dish helps keep the fish moist without adding oil.
At 400°F (200°C), mezgit fillets often take about 12–18 minutes, depending on thickness. They are ready when opaque and easy to separate with a fork; check thin pieces sooner to avoid overcooking.
Pat the mezgit dry, coat it lightly in seasoned breadcrumbs, and bake it on a preheated tray lined with parchment. The coating will brown, though it will not be quite as crisp as fish fried in oil.
Thawing mezgit in the refrigerator first gives more even cooking. If you bake it from frozen, expect a longer cooking time and check the thickest part carefully so the outside does not overcook before the center is done.
The mezgit should look opaque and separate into flakes when gently pressed with a fork. For a temperature check, the thickest part should reach 145°F (63°C); take care not to leave the fillets in the oven longer than needed.
Lemon, black pepper, garlic, parsley, paprika, and dill all complement mezgit without overpowering its mild flavor. Add the seasonings before baking, and use salt sparingly if you are also serving a salty side or sauce.
You can leave the skin on if the fillets still have it; it helps hold the delicate fish together while baking. Place skin-on pieces skin-side down, and remove the skin after cooking if you prefer not to eat it.
Reheat mezgit gently, covered, in a low oven or microwave until hot throughout. Short heating helps prevent the lean fillet from becoming dry; add a spoonful of water or lemon juice before covering if it seems dry.
It can fit a weight-loss meal because mezgit is a lean, protein-rich fish and baking it without oil avoids added cooking fat. Pair it with vegetables and choose portions and sides that suit your overall meal plan.

Oil-free baked haddock fillet is the name on this page, but the Turkish dish is made with mezgit, a local whiting—not haddock. The boneless fillet is baked without added oil, leaving its mild flavour and delicate, flaky texture to come through.
In Turkey, it is commonly served as a simple lunch or dinner with lemon, salad and seasonal vegetables; potatoes or grains make it a more filling meal. It is a lean, protein-rich white fish, with 24 g of protein per 100 g. For a light plate, keep the seasoning simple and pair it with vegetables rather than a rich sauce.
Very high
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
