Picked up by sister T at the Brighton Royal Pavilion when she interviewed Adrian Joly, interpreter (i.e. very knowledgeable person) for that amazing building.\u00a0 Worth a detour to Brighton, if only for the magnificent airy kitchen \u2013 the king was so proud of it he used to drag his guests in for a tour.\u00a0 See ‘barley water’ for another recipe.<\/p>\n
Serves 4<\/p>\n
4 mackerel, head removed, boned and cleaned [I think we call this butterflied – remove the bones but not the tail and leave the fish as 1 piece]
\n[mullet should work well too]<\/p>\n
1\/2 a small fennel bulb, finely chopped
\n55 g. unsalted butter
\n2 heaped tbs day old breadcrumbs
\n1\/2 tsp nutmeg
\na large bunch of fresh mint leaves, chopped (reserve a few)
\n4 finely chopped anchovies
\n1 lemon, cut into 4 wedges
\nsalt and black pepper<\/p>\n
Fry fennel in 1\/3 of butter over low heat until soft.\u00a0 Add breadcrumbs, stir until browned.\u00a0 Add nutmeg, mint, salt and pepper, stir 1 minute.
\nMake small slits in the skin of the fish, fill them and the central cavity of each fish with the fennel mix.
\nGrill on a hot grill for 4-6 minutes each side.
\nMash together the anchovies and remaining butter until combined.
\nDot the anchovy butter over the fish, garnish with mint leaves and lemon wedges and serve piping hot.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
