The refreshing crunch of cucumber and a dollop of cooling yoghurt are the ideal foils for the rich, smokey fish.
2 smoked mackerel fillets, skin and pin bones removed
2 tbsp Greek-style yoghurt
2 tbsp creamed horseradish
½ lemon, juice only
salt and freshly ground black pepper
butter, for spreading
4-6 slices white bread
½ cucumber, peeled, seeds removed, finely sliced
Flake the mackerel fillets into the bowl of a food processor. Add the yoghurt, horseradish and lemon juice and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Pulse gently to a rough paste.
Butter the bread, remove the crusts and cut into neat squares.
Arrange a single layer of sliced cucumber onto half of the buttered bread. Spread the mackerel pâté on top and sandwich with the remaining bread.
To serve, cut the sandwiches into triangles.
