    1. Set a saucepan over the heat, pour in the water, and bring it to a boil. Add the salt, sugar, and the rest of the spices. Stir until the crystals dissolve, then pour in the vinegar and vegetable oil. Turn off the heat and let the marinade sit so it soaks up the aroma of the spices while you prep the fish. 2. Trim the fins off the mackerel, clean out the belly cavity, and carefully scrape away the black membrane that makes the dish taste bitter. Cut the fish into portions about 1 1/2 inches (3–4 cm) wide. 3. Peel the onion and cut it into rings or half-rings, depending on its size. Lay a layer of onion in a saucepan, then a layer of fish, alternating to build up several layers. Pour the hot marinade over the mackerel and cook over low heat for five minutes. Once it has cooled, transfer it to the refrigerator. If you make it in the evening, it'll be ready by morning. Enjoy!
