Grilled Mackerel and Tomatoes [#87]


Well, a bit of a blog blackout as we have been holidaying in North Cornwall, sans IT connectivity. However, I still managed to get a couple of Nigel recipes in, mainly because of the fantastic local fish on sale. Ultra fresh mackerel, rigid and glistening, beckoned us from the fish counter of Stein's Deli in Padstow. Rather than filleting the fish, as in the recipe, I slashed the whole fish and grilled it until the skin blistered. I also grilled the sliced tomatoes and their garlicky dressing for a few minutes. Simple and scrummy, consumed greedily while sitting at our apartment balcony, watching the deep greeny-blue waves of the Atlantic below.
