  • Grilled mackerel is always a good idea! Especially when paired with a warm and hearty potato salad šŸ™Œ

    Ingredients:
    4 mackerel, butterflied, or 8 fillets, trimmed and pin-boned
    600g baby potatoes
    2 tbsp. Dijon mustard
    3 scallions, finely sliced
    4 tbsp. olive oil
    1 heaped tsp. whole grain mustard
    1 clove garlic, crushed
    2 tbsp. lemon juice
    2 level tbsp. fresh chives
    Zest of 1 lemon
    To serve: Steamed summer vegetables

    Method:
    To cook the potatoes:
    āœ… Place the potatoes in a saucepan with enough boiling water to just cover them and simmer for about 10-15 minutes until tender. When the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and then cut them into 2cm cubes.
    āœ… Transfer them to a serving bowl and keep them warm.

    To make the dressing:
    āœ… Combine the oil, mustard, garlic, lemon juice, zest and chives. Taste and season.
    āœ… Stir about 2/3 of the dressing through the potatoes along with the scallions. Reserve the rest of the dressing to drizzle over the cooked mackerel.
    āœ… Preheat the grill to high.

    To cook the mackerel:
    āœ… Line a grill pan or baking tray with lightly oiled tin foil then lay the fish skin side down.
    āœ… Spread the mustard over the mackerel. Season with salt and pepper.
    āœ… Place under a hot grill and cook for approximately 6 minutes.

    To serve:
    āœ… Serve the mackerel with the warm potato salad, summer vegetables and lemon wedges. Drizzle over the remaining dressing.
