  I really enjoy spicy fish recipes and am always looking for a good mackeral dish so this seemed a good bet. Plus we needed to get some Harissa for another recipe. It was quick and spicy. I served it with some couscous.

  This is a fantastic fish recipe. I have served this with both trout and salmon (both delicious). Even the children (5 and 9) enjoy it.

  I really enjoyed this and served it with warm potatoe, rocket and red onion salad (see another mackrel receipe on this site for that). I fried the pine nuts in a pan before adding them which really brings out the taste and provides a nice crunch otherwise they just go soggy.

  Really delicious and super easy, made a harrissa free version for my young children who really enjoyed it, even the skin. Not sure if the recipe is clear but 5mins is *overall* cooking time not each side.

  Really good. I used Herring and it worked well. The fish looked amazing and tasted really special. Quick and easy . Can't wait to use this recipe again.
