Ingredients

  • 200g fresh mackerel fillet, skin removed
  • 6 ripe figs
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • A pinch of sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
  • Edible flowers for garnish (optional)

Мethod of preparation

Begin by finely dicing the mackerel fillet and placing it in a mixing bowl. Carefully wash the figs and dice them as well, combining them with the mackerel. Add the fresh lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil, sea salt, and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper to the mixture. Mix gently until all the ingredients are well combined. Sprinkle in the chopped parsley and thyme, giving the tartare another gentle mix. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. Serve the tartare on a small plate, using a ring mold to shape if desired. Garnish with edible flowers for an added touch of elegance. This dish is best enjoyed fresh, paired with a light, crisp white wine that complements the richness of the mackerel and the sweetness of the figs.
