Smoked mackerel sandwich

If you're lucky enough to get free bread at work, you can always make yourself a sandwich for lunch - just bring in the filling ingredients.

While I was on a secondment we got free bread, so one day I made this filling:

1 smoked mackerel fillet, broken up a little
A few cornichon, finely chopped
A parsley sprig, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon capers, finely chopped
A squeeze lemon juice
A squeeze salad cream

Mix all the ingredients together. I know people (ie Ollie) think salad cream is tacky, but I think it's lovely. It contains less fat than mayonnaise, and has more flavour.

When you're ready for lunch, toast 2 slices wholemeal or granary bread and spread one side with the filling. Top with a handful of rocket or watercress then with the other slice of toast.

You don't need a photo of a sandwich.
