One of the great things about mackerel is how amazingly quick it is to cook, 5 minutes in a pan and it's done, ready to serve. It's a bargain too, for this recipe I bought enough mackerel for three people for the grand total of £1!
For the salsa chop into smallish dice:
- Half a mango
- 2 or 3 de-seeded tomatoes
- A small red onion
- An avocado
- A finely chopped chilli
- A large bunch of fresh green coriander
- 1-2 tsp ground coriander
- 1-2 tsp ground cumin
- The juice of a lime
- 4 Tbsp olive oil
- A generous pinch of salt
the mackerel looks very tasty. I'm sure its perfect when paired with the mango salsa
ReplyDeleteHm, I have so little experience cooking fish that I usually don't know what to do with it, but that looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine how well that salsa cuts through the lovely oily mackerel flesh! That looks really delicious.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds really good! I've only ever tried mackerel once - when I was in England. I'm sure it can be found here too though. Salsa sounds delicious :)
ReplyDeleteI had peppered mackerel toast with spicy salsa at the weekend in a gastropub - very nice it was too!
ReplyDeleteI love mackerel - the fact it's so good for you is a bonus
Mackerel is fantastic value for money. Great idea to serve it with mango salsa.
ReplyDeletemackerel is indeed really cheap but I'm not a big fan of the fishiness. Sounds great with the mango salsa though!
ReplyDeleteSounds really interesting. I know mackerel is good for you and a guilt-free seafood purchase, but I'll admit I've never cooked it because I wasn't sure what to serve with it. Now I have no excuse!
