Background
This flatbread with smoked mackerel and egg is perfect for Easter breakfast or brunch, particularly at the end of Lent. It’s even nicer if you serve it with home-made flatbread, like I did. See flatbread recipe>>
Ingredients
- 2 flatbreads
- 2 eggs
- 1 Tbsp capers
- 2 smoked mackerel fillet
- 5 Tbsp cream cheese
- 1 Tbsp horseradish
- Grated zest and juice of ½ lemon
- Lettuce leaves
- For the mustard sauce:
- 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 2 tsp chopped dill
- Ground pepper
Instructions
- Put the eggs in small pan of water and bring to the boil. When boiling, put a lid on and turn off the heat.
- Rest for 6 minutes, then drain and rinse the eggs under cold water. Rest them in cold water.
- While the eggs are resting, make the mustard sauce – mix the mustard with the honey, vinegar, oil and dill. Season with freshly ground pepper, taste, adjust to your liking then set aside.
- Mix the cream cheese and horseradish together with the lemon zest and juice. Season with salt and pepper and adjust the heat to your liking. Warm up the flatbread in a toaster or pancake pan.
- Put the flatbread onto plates, then spread the cream cheese mixture over them.
- Place one fish fillet on both (you can discard the skin, if preferred) then scatter some capers around it.
- Remove the egg shells, then cut the eggs in half. Add these to the fish, together with some lettuce leaves.
- Drizzle the eggs and the lettuce with the mustard sauce.
- Serve immediately.
