Method
- Boil the potatoes for 20 mins, adding the eggs for the final 7 mins and the beans for 5 mins. Drain. Let the beans steam-dry; peel and quarter the eggs.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the dressing ingredients.
- Fry the mackerel, skin-side down, over a medium heat for 3-4 mins, then flip and fry for 1-2 mins until the skin is crisp and the flesh moist and opaque.
- Toss the lettuce, tomatoes, olives, most of the chives, the drained potatoes and green beans together with the dressing.
- Divide the salad among plates. Remove and discard the skin from the mackerel, then flake over the salad. Top with the eggs and remaining chives to serve.
Tip: Use fresh mackerel, if you like.
