Method

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 7. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Step 2

Boil the potatoes for 20 minutes, or until tender. Drain and thickly slice. Return to the pan and cover.

Step 3

Meanwhile, place the mackerel skin-side down on the prepared baking tray. Drizzle over half the lemon juice, season with pepper and sprinkle over the chilli flakes. Bake for 15 minutes, then leave to cool. Peel off the skin and flake the fish.

Step 4

For the dressing, put the onion, yoghurt and horseradish in a small bowl together with the remaining lemon juice. Whisk lightly, then season with black pepper to taste.

Step 5

Boil the peas for 1-2 minutes. Drain and put in a large bowl with the cabbage and tomatoes. Toss and add the potatoes and watercress and toss again. Spoon on to 4 plates and top with the mackerel. Serve the dressing on the side, sprinkled with black pepper.
