Our family loves fish, but it all depends on the variety, because small, bony fish are quite tasty, but they need to be eaten carefully, and silver carp is just right: affordable and easy to prepare, especially with vegetables. The only thing that until recently did not suit my husband was the smell during cooking. It was this problem that I tried to solve by cooking silver carp in a slow cooker, and even steaming it. The combination of onions and carrots, potatoes and broccoli with cauliflower did the job - my husband was delighted and even surprised to see silver carp with vegetables for dinner and not smell it.
But this steamed fish is not just a very quick dish, it is a truly healthy lunch or dinner. After all, not only silver carp, but the above-mentioned vegetables also belong to products that are of great benefit to the body. Carrots - vitamin A, potatoes are an ideal product for the combination of sodium and calcium salts, broccoli is a wonderful vegetable for those who want to lose weight (it contains only 30 kcal per 100 g), it contains a lot of vitamin C, cauliflower - contains sodium, iron, magnesium, and its protein content is more than that of white cabbage.

I suggest cooking large silver carp steaks with potatoes, carrots, broccoli and sweet peppers in a slow cooker or double boiler. You will significantly save your time by preparing both the fish and the side dish for it at the same time. Instead of silver carp, you can take absolutely any fish :)
To cook fish with steamed vegetables, take two portions of silver carp steaks, fish seasoning (my seasoning includes mustard grains, rosemary, garlic, sea salt, white pepper, thyme, lemon zest), potatoes, carrots, broccoli, sweet pepper, salt, olive oil.
Place the silver carp steaks in the tray of a multicooker for steaming, sprinkle each piece of fish with fish seasoning. I have seasonings in the grinder, which is included in the composition, I wrote above. You can take your favorite spices and seasonings for fish or limit yourself to just salt. Don’t forget to pour water into the multicooker saucepan, since we will be steaming the fish and vegetables. Prepare all vegetables: wash, peel, chop.
Place pieces of potatoes and carrots in the empty spaces.
Place broccoli (or cauliflower) florets and large pieces of sweet pepper pulp on top.
Season the vegetables and drizzle with a little olive oil.
Cook the silver carp with vegetables for 25 minutes ("Steam" program).
Serve the fish with vegetables as soon as the cooking process is complete, that is, hot. When cold, both fish and vegetables will no longer be as tasty.
Enjoy your meal!!!
