Smoked mackerel and tangerine salad

I find mackerel needs a lot of lemon or lime juice to cut through the oily flavour. Whole juicy chunks of tangerine do this wonderfully and make a nice healthy and refreshing meal.

Chef's notes

Don't be tempted to add salt as processed mackerel can be quite salty already.
