Welcome viewers and introduce the recipe for seasoned fried bake.

List the ingredients: all-purpose flour, salt, baking powder, sugar, yeast, butter, green seasoning blend, cilantro, scallion, hot pepper, canned mackerel, onion, sweet bell pepper, celery, shallots, and tomatoes.

Chop the scallion finely, discarding the tough parts, and set aside.

Mix the green seasoning blend with butter in a bowl.

Add salt, baking powder, sugar, and yeast to the flour and mix well.

Gradually add lukewarm water to the flour mixture to form a dough, noting that water amounts may vary based on flour texture and climate.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for 2-3 minutes until smooth, adding more flour if it’s too sticky.

Place the kneaded dough back in the bowl, cover with a damp paper towel and a tea towel, and let it rest for 30-45 minutes to rise.

Prepare the mackerel filling by removing bones from canned mackerel and mixing it with chopped onion, scallion, cilantro, sweet bell pepper, celery, shallots, and all-purpose seasoning.

Heat oil in a pan and sauté the onion, green seasoning, shallots, and celery until fragrant.

Add the mackerel to the sautéed mixture and cook, breaking it up slightly as needed.

Add frozen tomatoes to the mixture and let it cook until the desired consistency is achieved.

Finally, add the sweet bell pepper, scallion, and cilantro to the mackerel mixture and stir to combine.
