There are a few parts to this, but all are very easy.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium mackerel, filleted
  • large-flaked sea salt and black pepper
  • butter

Method

Skin the cucumber and slice on a grater on the single-blade side or on a mandoline. If you are chopping the slices, they must be cut very thin. Put the slices in a sieve or colander and throw in enough salt to make you think you have added a little too much. This is correct. Mix in the salt well and leave the contents to drip over the sink for half an hour. Then quickly run a little cold water
