  This was quick and easy but most mackerel you buy is smoked and I am not sure it goes so well with the marinade. If you are unsure use a tuna steak as that is a winner with such a marinade for sure. I just was left with a mix of two flavours which was not bad but a bit strange.

  You are meant to buy fresh mackerel from the fresh fish counter not the packets of smoked mackerel which are already cooked. Very fresh tasting.

  Gorgeous flavours. Used fresh unsmoked mackerel and baked the fish in the marinade. Served it with vegetable risotto rice.
