Smoked mackerel with orange, watercress & potato salad recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp sherry or red wine vinegar
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 medium potato, such as Maris Piper or Desirée, cut into cubes
  • ½ small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 large orange
  • 100g bag watercress
  • 2 peppered smoked mackerel fillets, skin removed

Method

  • Whisk together the sherry or wine vinegar, mustard and oil with some seasoning. Boil the potatoes in salted water until easily pierced with a knife, about 10 mins. Toss in a bowl with threequarters of the dressing and onion slices, then leave to cool a little.

  • Cut the peel and pith from the orange, then cut into thick slices. Toss the watercress into the salad, then divide between 2 plates and top with the oranges, fish and the remaining dressing.
