Super Healthy Smoked Mackerel Salad

"Smoked fish on a market stall are a wrinkly, miserable bunch. But the fat golden mackerel is arguably more handsome than the rest, so let's be tempted to rescue one. What to do with it? Well, my grandmother used to meticulously divest the fillets of pin bones and turn them to a pâté/sandwich paste with some smashed hard-boiled eggs and a little mayo. It was great – but very 1970s. Better to do one of those salads that the trendy bunch call ‘super-salads’. Throw in some avocado – you can’t go wrong with it these days. Chuck in an unusual ingredient: a lightly cooked celeriac here; a bit of apple and cucumber for the fresh flavour and you’re there: seasoning is ad lib. Tonnes of omega 3 from the mackerel - and it's mighty tasty!"
