Method

Warm cider vinegar, water, coriander, sugar, onion, peppercorns, and lemon in a saucepan to 60°C.

Cool the mixture, then marinate mackerel fillets flesh-side down for 20 minutes.

Dissolve sugar in dressing ingredients over gentle heat and set aside.

Preheat the grill to its highest setting.

Pat mackerel dry and make diagonal scores across the skin.

Arrange mackerel skin-side up on a greased tray and grill for 4-5 minutes.

Combine all salad ingredients in a large bowl.

Serve fish over salad, drizzled with dressing and topped with toasted fennel seeds.
