Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
2Mackerel fillets
25gramsBran flakes; (1oz)
2teaspoonsHorseradish relish
Grated rind of 1 lemon
6Brazil nuts
1bunchChopped chives
1teaspoonGrain mustard
1bunchFresh watercress
2Hard boiled eggs
4Carrots; peeled and grated
1tablespoonPs olive oil
2teaspoonsBalsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper

Directions

Preheat the oven to 230øC/560øF/gas mark 7.

Crush the bran flakes into a bowl with the horseradish, lemon zest and a few chopped chives. Then with a grater, finely grate the brazil nuts into the mixture.

Meanwhile skin the mackerel fillets and cut out the pin bones with a pair of pliers or a knife. Season the fillets with salt and pepper and then place the crust on one side of each fillet. Press the mixture down well on the fish so that there is a firm coating.

Place the fillets on a baking tray and spray each fillet with some low fat cooking spray, (available from the supermakets) and then put them straight in the oven. These will take about 10 minutes to cook, or until they form a nice crunchly texture on top.

For the watercress and carrot salad, simply grate the hard boiled egg into the watercress with a squeeze of lemon juice, add the grated carrot and grain mustard and dress with a little balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

To serve: Place a little pile of watercress salad in the middle of the serving dish, then carefully place the baked mackerel fillets on top.

Drizzle a little more olive oil around the outside of the plate with a few drops of balsamic vinegar and finish with chopped chives.
