Notes
- A splash of white wine added at the same time as the lemon adds a lovely richness to this.
- If you like spicy food, then add a sprinkle of red chilli flakes before serving.
- Capers add a lovely extra flavour to this mackerel recipe.
- We used unsmoked mackerel for this recipe, but you could use smoked if you prefer.
