Mackerel Bruschetta

The perfect snack, lunch or starter, this Italian seafood dish tastes marvellous and is easy to make.

Ingredients

• 12 slices baguette, each about 2cm thick
• 110g can Morrisons The Best Scottish Smoked Mackerel Strips with Black Pepper
• 3 ripe tomatoes, finely chopped
• 1 small red onion, finely chopped
• ½ small bunch parsley, finely chopped
• 1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
• Lemon juice, to taste, plus wedges to serve
• Black pepper

The method

1. Preheat the grill to medium.
2. Drizzle a little of the oil from the can of mackerel over the baguette slices. Place under the grill for a few minutes (garlic and oil side up), until lightly toasted (make sure they don’t burn).
3. Combine the tomatoes, onion, parsley and garlic. Add lemon juice to taste and the remaining oil from the canned mackerel. Break the mackerel fillets into small pieces.
4. Top the toasted baguette slices with the tomato mixture, followed by the mackerel. Finish with a grind of black pepper, and serve with the lemon wedges.
