Instrukcje
- 1.Preheat your oven to 200°C. Cook the pearl barley according to package directions, usually simmering in water for 25-30 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
- 2.While the barley cooks, toss the sliced fennel and cherry tomatoes with 15ml of olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until the fennel is tender and slightly caramelized.
- 3.To make the vinaigrette, whisk together the remaining 30ml of olive oil, the juice and zest of one lemon, minced garlic, and chopped dill in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- 4.Pat the mackerel fillets dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Place the fillets skin-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes until the skin is crisp. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- 5.In a large bowl, combine the warm barley, roasted vegetables, and lentils. Pour over half of the vinaigrette and toss gently. Divide the salad between two plates, top with a mackerel fillet, and drizzle with remaining vinaigrette.
