Hugh complements this rich, oily fish with a garlic marinade in River Cottage Spring

Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 5-6 grinds of black pepper
  • 4 fresh bay leaves, very finely shredded
  • 4 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 mackerel, gutted

Method: How to make grilled mackerel

1. Whisk together the garlic, salt, pepper, bay leaves and olive oil. Rub the marinade all over the mackerel and inside the cavity.

2. Make sure your barbecue is very hot. Put the fish on the grill and turn after five minutes, allowing the other side to cook for a few minutes longer until the fish is opaque all of the way through. Serve straight away.
