Instrucciones
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C. Peel and dice the beetroot and carrots into 2cm cubes. Toss with 15ml of olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 25-30 minutes until tender.
- 2.While the vegetables roast, cook the lentils. Rinse the lentils, place them in a pot with 400ml of water, bring to a boil, then simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender. Drain any excess water.
- 3.For the dressing, whisk together the remaining 15ml of olive oil, the juice of half a lemon, minced garlic, and Dijon mustard. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in most of your chopped fresh dill.
- 4.Pat the mackerel fillets dry and season them with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the fillets skin-side down for 3-4 minutes until the skin is crisp and golden.
- 5.Flip the mackerel and cook for another 1-2 minutes until opaque and cooked through.
- 6.In a large bowl, combine the warm roasted vegetables and cooked lentils. Gently mix in the dressing.
- 7.To serve, divide the lentil and vegetable salad onto two plates. Place a mackerel fillet on top of each, and garnish with the remaining fresh dill and a lemon wedge.
