Mackerel Recipe
Mackerel in Cider

This is a really simple and straightforward mackerel recipe - if you've got any cider left, it goes flat if you leave it in the bottle, so I recommend you drink it - Cooks privileges!

The alcohol burns off with cooking, but if you need to, you can substitute 5 fl oz (150ml) of apple juice and 5 fl oz (150ml) of water.

Mackerel is available all year round but is best between February and June

Mackerel is high in Omega 3s so this mackerel recipe is good for your heart as well as tasty!

Mackerel in Cider
4 mackerel - filleted
1 onion - sliced in thin rings
salt and black pepper
10 fl oz (300ml) dry cider

Heat the oven to Gas Mark 4, 350F or 180C

Put the mackerel fillets into an ovenproof dish - season with a few twists of pepper and salt.

Top with the onion rings and pour the cider over.

Cover with a lid or tinfoil and bake in the oven for about 35 minutes.

This is great served with new potatoes and some lightly cooked fresh green vegetables.

It is also good cold as part of a seafood platter - try some green salad and stir some of the cooking juices into a soured cream or yoghurt salad dressing.
