Ingredients
- 150g hot-smoked mackerel, skinned
- 1 ripe avocado
- Juice of ½ lemon, plus an extra squeeze
- 200g cherry tomatoes, halved
- 250g pack ready-cooked puy lentils (we like Merchant Gourmet)
- 2 handfuls of lamb’s lettuce or other salad leaves
- Handful of fresh chives, snipped
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Method
- Gently break the mackerel into bite-size chunks and put in a serving bowl. Slice the avocado into chunks, then squeeze over a little lemon juice to prevent it browning.
- Add the avocado, tomatoes, lentils, salad leaves and chives to the mackerel. Whisk the lemon juice with sea salt, black pepper and a pinch of caster sugar, then whisk in the olive oil. Pour over the salad, toss gently, then serve.
