Smoked Mackerel Salad

This is a lovely salad using smoked mackerel and capers. The flavours are so dominant and the fish is oily, so you need only a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon to dress. Lush!

Ingredients

• handful lettuce
• handful rocket
• ¼ red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 tomato, cut into wedges
• ¼ avocado, peeled and sliced
• ¼ cucumber, sliced
• 1 tsp olive oil
• salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1 fillet smoked mackerel
• 2 tsp capers
• lemon wedges

Method

1. Place all the ingredients in a bowl and drizzle over the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss well to evenly coat, allowing that one teaspoon olive oil to go a long way.
2. Tip into the serving bowl and break over the mackerel. Scatter the capers over the salad and serve with a lemon wedge or two to be generously squeezed over.
