Ingredients
- 80g smoked mackerel, skinned and flaked
- 50g cooked prawns, peeled and thawed if frozen
- 4 tablespoons 0%-fat Greek yoghurt
- 3 spring onions, finely chopped
- 1 tomato, deseeded and chopped
- half a cucumber – a quarter finely chopped, a quarter sliced to serve
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest, finely grated
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
- 4 slices wholemeal bread
- small handful of watercress, to serve
Method
-
Put the mackerel into a bowl and mash with a fork, removing any bones. Add the prawns (chopped if large), yoghurt, spring onions, deseeded tomato, cucumber and lemon zest. Season with a little black pepper and stir everything together.
Information:If using peppered smoked mackerel, you won't need to use any extra pepper in the recipe.
-
Toast the bread, then spread the fish mixture on top. Serve with cucumber slices and watercress.
Information:Another time, try using smoked trout instead of mackerel.
