We have just had some amazing fresh mackerel arrive at the door so we decided to do something a little different to a pan fried fillet, check it out........Samphire's Mackerel Pate:
Things you will need..........
- Mackerel Fillets (cooked, just bake them with a bit of seasoning and oil) or some smoked mackerel for the supermarket
- Cream Cheese
- Spring Onions
- Red Peppers
- Fresh Herbs......Dill, Basil, Parsley etc
- If you are after a nice smooth pate texture, run your cooked mackerel through a food processor, if you like it rustic, just bash it up with a fork or wooden spoon.
- Add all the ingredients you like and stir it up a bit making sure there are no large clumps through it
- Grab yourself a nice fresh loaf, cut it up chunky or flatbreads are amazing!
- Get some nice crunchy salad, lightly dress
- Put everything on a big wooden chopping board and you are ready to munch!!
