1. Video tutorial: Filleting a round fish

1. Roll the mackerel fillets in the flour sifted with smoked paprika and seasoning. Shake off excess flour and set the fish aside in a single layer.
2. Put 1 tbsp of the olive oil, the orange zest and juice and the harissa paste into a small bowl, and whisk together. Heat a frying pan with remaining olive oil until very hot. Fry the fish fillets for 5 mins, first on the skin side, then on the flesh side.
3. When the fish is nearly cooked - it should look firm - pour over the orange and harissa glaze, bring to the boil and allow the liquid to bubble until sticky. Sprinkle over the pine nuts and coriander.

  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.
