On the Coals Mackerel Toast, Mussels and Nduja I Kasai Grills

Method

Remove your mackerel from the fridge 30 minutes before you start cooking.

 

Brush both sides with the infused rapeseed oil and season with good quality sea salt.

 

Place over a medium-hot section of your barbecue skin-side down and use a small frying pan to press it down. You want to keep the skin of the mackerel in full contact with the top of your grill to make sure it gets nice and crispy.

 

Allow your mackerel to cook for 3-4 minutes.

 

Whilst your fish is cooking, brush your infused oil over the sourdough and place on the grill to toast.

 

Quickly colour your already cooked mussels on your grill and remove everything from the grill.

 

Serve your grilled sourdough on top of your nduja sauce so that it all soaks up nicely and top with your grilled mussels and mackerel.

 

Finish with freshly chopped parsley and lemon wedges.

Nduja butter Sauce

  • Add the white wine and reduce by 2/3. Add the Double Cream and reduce by half.
  • Whisk through the nduja and gradually add cubed cold butter, whisking continuesly to create a thick, shiny sauce.
  • Season to taste with sea salt and lemon juice.
Infused Rapeseed Oil
  • Pack your herbs into a jam jar or Tupperware and top up with rapeseed oil.
  • Cover and leave at room temperature overnight to infuse.
