Upute za pripremu
- 1.Rinse the lentils and place them in a small saucepan with 500ml of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until tender but not mushy. Drain any excess water and set aside.
- 2.While the lentils cook, heat 15ml of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped red onion and sliced fennel, cooking for 5-7 minutes until they begin to soften.
- 3.Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for 3-4 minutes until they just start to break down. Finally, add the spinach and cook until just wilted.
- 4.Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the cooked lentils, chopped dill, and lemon juice to the vegetable mixture. Season with salt and pepper, stir to combine, and keep warm.
- 5.Pat the mackerel fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 15ml of olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- 6.Place the mackerel fillets skin-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until cooked through.
- 7.To serve, divide the warm lentil salad between two plates and top each with a pan-seared mackerel fillet.
