Steps

20 mins

1

Skin the filets, break into bite sized pieces, chill in refrigerator.
2

Mix the horseradish with garlic puree and then the sundried tomato puree
3

Boil the tagliatelle in salted water to which the stock cube has been added. Either boil as to instructions on packet or to your liking
4

Cut the broccoli into little florets, gently mix with the petite pois
5

Chop the sundried tomatoes
6

dry roast the asparagus in a hot griddle pan until slightly browned.
7

I do not recommend using the green variety from a jar as it does not griddle pan well. You may of course use both, green or white cooked from fresh and then griddled.
8

When the tagliatelle is cooked add the three table spoons of sundried olive oil to it. Mix in the the combined horseradish, garlic puree and sundried tomato puree
9

Add the broccoli and peas ( petite pois). Gently lift the mackerel under until well combined.
10

Top with the griddled asparagus .
11

Eat straight away or leave to chill in refrigerator.

I have no eaten this with other smoked fish but I should think it works well too .
